bobo's world

* not surprisingly, david brooks tries to paint harryreid as someone needing a straight jacket in a round room. let the bobo who is not in need of a straightjacket throw the first crayon. (link)

* "The Corporation for Public Broadcasting Board of Directors said Thursday that embattled former board chairman Ken Tomlinson has resigned." (link)
thnk jeebus. im sure its just a coincidence that lehrer actually covered libby's arraignment today

* "Fitzgerald predicted that the case against Libby would last about two weeks once the trial began.
Libby was released Thursday without posting bail. The next court date is a Feb. 3 status hearing." (link)

* the nyt finally covers the sismi/niger story - but they include a few 'fudges' - including : "There had long been doubts within the United States intelligence community about the authenticity of the yellowcake documents, and references to it had been deleted from other presentations given at the time."
'at the time' actually means in october, 3 months before the sotu speech.

* "GEORGE GALLOWAY was referred to US prosecutors last night by a Senate committee that said there was “probable cause” to believe that he lied to Congress about his role in the UN Oil-for-Food scandal." (link)
