This could be big. Ace has the lack of details here.

I’m on the phone with him now.

Two Pieces of Good News: Killer Dies; Helen Thomas Put in her Place by Tony Snow

Allah reports that the guy who killed Pfcs Menchaca and Tucker has been killed.

What would “the Hezbollah view” on this be? Ask Helen Thomas.

I don’t miss Scott McClellan one bit.

Atrios in the L.A. Times

Duncan Black, aka Atrios, had a piece in the L.A. Times yesterday. It opens:

SOME TIME AFTER having lunch in Iraq with the junior senator from Connecticut, Time magazine Baghdad bureau chief Michael Ware told an interviewer, “Either Sen. Lieberman is so divorced from reality that he’s completely lost the plot, or he knows he’s spinning a line.”

and ends:

Lieberman’s problem isn’t bloggers, it’s the voters of Connecticut, who seem to be increasingly tired of his support for some very uncivil policies, including federal intervention into the Terri Schiavo case, the administration’s operations at the U.S. prison at Guantanamo Bay and, yes, that disastrous invasion of Iraq.

And in the middle he says:

Jeebus. What the [expletive deleted]ing [expletive deleted] is going on with this [expletive deleted]ing country, with this [expletive deleted]ing Lieberman wanker?

Then he tries to open an open thread.

It took a lot of editing.

P.S. I’m told they had a debate about the expletives, after apparently publishing a four-letter word rhyming with “snit” today, because the President had said it. “He’s full of it, so we can have him say it,” a senior editor intoned.
