The White House has officially lost its mind. Today we had our President fumble his way through an obviously scripted question and answer session with some troops in Iraq. One of the delights of C-Span is watching the daily White House briefing. To see Scott McClellan try and handle the suddenly vigilant WH press corps is one of the funniest series on TV right now. He tried to deny that the Iraqi session was scripted, when the WH released a tape of a woman actually coaching the soldiers beforehand. Amazing.
You need to watch the briefings at length on C-Span. The sound bites do not do them justice. Ever since the Karl Rove denial briefing back in August with David Gregory of NBC leading the charge, the gloves are off. Even Carl Cameron of Fox (yes, that Fox) is getting into it. You had Rove, Sheehan, Rove, Katrina, Rove, Miers, Rove and now today's debacle over the last two months. It's great to have the press back.

A genetic link to Tourette's has been found. They are cussin' like "Deadwood" in that lab.

Last night's non-Strike 3 call in the Angels-White Sox game was a joke. Replay for baseball would have been perfect in that situation. Terrible call.

Harry and David - don't bother. Oh the Moose Crunch is addicting but not that healthy. The fruit is so are overpriced. And if you want chocolate, I know a much better company.
I agree with allowing replays in baseball. I would go so far as to include a computerized balls and strikes because I am still pissed that the umps took the bats out of our hands against Atlanta. But I don't believe anyone could say for sure if that ball hit ground or not. Might be time to call in NASA to enhance the picture. Hey, I got an idea. We could use a hologram for a home plate umpire. We could get revenues from having Ronald McDonald, Count Chocula or an Oscar Meyer weiner calling balls and strikes!! PFS
Was she talking about Malley's?

if you remember the Tribe had a bunch of whiners at the plate in 95 and the AL umpires did not forget that when they had the plate
