Condi Rice was everywhere this morning. And everwhere that Condi went, her devotion to George Bush was never far behind.

Dick Durbin was doing a fairly good job on ThisWeek against senile-when-he-wants-to-be Mitch McConnell, hammering on the point that the drawdown plan "leaked" by Gen. Casey this week happens to match in fairly precise detail the withdrawal plans advocated by the better class of Senate Democrats this week.

Is this not a wearing a little thin as the number of Americans lost since 9-11, 2600+ and rising at 3 or so a day, is rapidly approaching the number lost on 9-11? Somehow I fail to see the logic here.)
