News bytes

I have to agree, the NYT putting their columnists behind a paywall is a stupid idea that will diminish their on-line influence.

The Saudi government says the constitutional elections in Iraq won't do a blessed thing to prevent the budding civil war in Iraq from erupting into a major conflageration. Not that Bush will listen to them anymore than he did prior to the invasion, nor did he heed their urgent warnings about our misguided policy decisions ever since.

The WaPo has the story on Bush's missing swagger that ran off the minute his approval ratings tanked into the toilet. Scrappleface has the Amber Alert. There's an ugly rumor the Dems may have kidnapped it.

I've had the TV on all morning but haven't seen anything about the peace rally scheduled for DC today. The WaPo notes several events are occurring simultaneously but although the rally is expected to draw far more than the organizer's estimate of 100,000 people, local police are not anticipating any problems because of the march.
