Stuff of Note
Just a few things from the usual suspects.

John Dean sees more in the Libby indictment than most(and let's face it, this guy knows a thing or three about federal cases) It's good.(hint: RBC)

Those fine folks at E&P have the lowdown on Lawrence Wilkerson's(Powell's former chief of staff) latest bombshell..Cheney responsible for prisoner abuse. I though Rummy was the chief player here.

And finally, also via E&P by way of the AP, the Orange Park, FL principal censors(nixes, really) an article about the reality of homosexuality. (spoiler - the student gets the issue almost exactly as scientists describe, and the gendarme of the school freaks)

So, two Cheney revelations(maybe) and a freedom of the press/speech/civil rights issue for your perusal.

If you are looking for a relatively impartial US source of news, Knight-Ridder's Washington Bureau is a good bet. On today's front page, there's a good read about 'wrongful incarceration in Iraq,' and the erosive effect that long, wrongful detainment is having on Iraqi's new government. These are Iraqi run facilities, not a US run prison, the abuses of which we're now so used to hearing.

Gotta bail for a while.
