Is tomorrow the big day?
This may or may not have something to do with the war . . . Fred, delete it if you think it's off-topic (or just plain "off"); I'll take no offense.Two interesting notes appeared in the Ashbrook Center's No Left Turns political science weblog today: Cheney Takes the Hill Vice-President Cheney will be presiding over the Senate from 11:00 am till 12:30 p.m. tomorrow in a special session on Miguel Estrada. . . . Posted at 11:46 this morning. Nothing special, just domestic politics . . . but then, an hour later, came this: More on Cheney on the Hill The Senate Whip has issued an alert regarding VP Cheney exercising his VP prerogative to preside over the Senate tomorrow between the hours of 11:00am and 12:30pm: "Vice President Cheney will be the Presiding Officer and a special message from the President will be delivered during this time." (Emphasis added.) According to your humble narrator's calculations, 11:00 in Washington is 19:00 Baghdad time . . . just after sunset, when the Middle Eastern skies sometimes fill with prowling Nighthawks and vengeful Spirits . . . so this could be an indication that the party's about to start. Or not. Have a nice evening, Mr. Hussein. Posted by: Mike 2003-03-10 |
