-from Kevin Drum: No torture, no exceptions and the blog links to the report of an FBI agent who actually questioned al-qaeda people and did it without torture or the threat of torture. No torture, no exceptions. I like it.
-this from thinkprogress.org via Kevin Drum:
Rove: I fully expect to be indicted by the end of the year.More than interesting as Jim B. was mentioning how well Karl Rove came across in dueling with Bill O'Reilly on Fox last night (?). Before giving me the details I told him of a painting I saw on Antiques Roadshow last night: it was of a red fox lounging on a hillside with an 'i-ate-the-canary' look and a caption that goes something like this: well, no, I have no idea where your hen is, Mr. Farmer Man. Still waiting for the day Mr. Rove is behind bars; the sooner the better.
-Caught this Charlie Rose round table tribute to William Buckley last night. It was an hour of informal rememberings of Buckley and how he touched the lives of the guests. I remember watching him on Firing Line years ago. Excellent - both Firing Line and the Charlie Rose tribute.
-Breakfast at the Cabin with Jim and Wilma after paper signing session with Dave W. at the bank. All's well.
-News that Daughter Number Two, Danielle, and her two daughters are coming to town on the 19th for an extended stay. That's great news!
Time to wrap up here and head to the golf course; well, guess not quite yet - sun is shining but the temperature is still sub 40.
