Morning Bang

- When asked on ABC this morning why he waited to release his book until the election season, Richard Clarke said something very interesting. He said that tthe release of his book was scheduled for late December, but the governments screening of the text, for security reasons, led to the book being released now.

So, let me get this straight, the Bush Administration had a four month advance copy of the book and still rolled out the "Clarke wasn't in the loop" defense? A defense that leaves big questions if you believe them or don't. If Clarke, the leading expert in counterterrorism for the last three presidents wasn't in the loop isn't that a bit of a relection on the Bush admins dedication to counterterrorism? If he was in the loop, shouldn't he be taken at his word?

What I don't get is why the Bush administration has to lie about all of this. Just come out and say that some of the conversations Clarke documents happened. That the administration as a whole was interested in considering all options and that a majority of them had a gut feeling that Iraq was somehow involved. It isn't ridiculous for that to be true and it effectively negates anything Clarke is saying. But, no, the Bush White House refuses to argee with anything they deem an attack, so they immediately go into their default deny everything mode and end up looking like they are hiding things; again.

Political Wire has more on the Clarke situation in general.

- Outside the Beltway has an update on the Brawny Man makeover. Besides the changes in his look and outfit, please notice that the paper towels are now no longer "Pure White", but only "White." I mean, well that's it, now I am buying Brawny. The guy has a flannel shirt and the color of the papertowel is no longer that blinding pure white.

Riddle Update:

As noted in the comments, the answer is indeed pencil lead. Good job Johnny.

Today's Riddle:

Until I am measured I am not known, Yet how you miss me When I have flown.

As the Pfizer manufactured erectile dysfunction drug Viagra creates record in drug sales throughout the world after men in hordes opted to buy cheap viagra through viagra online, other rival drug manufacturing companies have lost their peace of mind. They are consistently trying to diminish the ever-growing Viagra popularity by spreading that excessive usage of Viagra has accelerated the prevalence of HIV and other sexually transmitted diseases among men. Of, course it is true men taking Viagra for recreational means are vulnerable to sexually transmitted diseases and as such if a man chooses to buy viagra from any online drug store without a Viagra prescription from the doctor, his health is totally at risk. The4proper way to combat erectile dysfunction with Viagra is to buy viagra online from an authentic drug store and administer the drug in accordance with the suggestions of the doctor.
