US officials in Baghdad and Washington are expected to unveil a secret intelligence "dossier" this week detailing evidence of Iran's alleged complicity in attacks on American troops in Iraq. The move, uncomfortably echoing Downing Street's dossier debacle in the run-up to the 2003 Iraq invasion, is one more sign that the Bush administration is building a case for war.
Nicholas Burns, the senior US diplomat in charge of Iran policy, says Washington "is not looking for a fight" with Tehran. The official line is that Washington has made a conscious decision to "push back" against Iran on a range of fronts where the two countries' interests clash. Primarily that means Tehran's perceived meddling in Iraq, where its influence with the Shia-led government and Shia majority population appears to be increasing as Washington's weakens.

One of the major problems with the pundit cadre is the same I've seen among the 'upper level' managerial class. They never ever grasp that -everybody- knows -somebody-. They never comprehend that their little worlds co-incide with other little worlds and that, by so doing, their little 'issues' will be revealed and held against them. Most especially, they never realise, perhaps cannot realise that their downfall can come at the hands of someone they don't know.

OT: Hassan Nasrallah, the leader of Hezbollah, has accused George Bush of creating chaos in Lebanon, and rejected the US president's latest criticisms of the Shia group.
Speaking at Beirut ceremonies marking the climax of the Muslim festival of Ashura, Nasrallah accused the US of ordering Israel to launch last year's attack on Lebanon.
"The one who fomented chaos in Lebanon, who destroyed Lebanon, who killed women and children, old and young in Lebanon, is George Bush and (Secretary of State) Condoleezza Rice who ordered the Zionists to launch the war on Lebanon," Nasrallah said.

When I first read the comment, I took it exactly as Liasson took it: that Clinton was reminding people that she had lots of experience dealing with evil men such as Starr, Scaife, Gingrich, etc. It was a reasonable way to deflect the concern that was expressed in the question: Would "a girl" have what it takes to deal w/ evil men like bin Laden? She was saying, in a humorous way (cuz, you know, she's too serious and prim and humorless -- feminists are ALWAYS humorless), "Yeah, I'm a girl and I've been dealing with evil men all my life. Don't worry about how big my ovaries are; they're big."
Matthews is batshit insane. Absolutely batshit insane. I'm actually kind of glad Hillary's running just for the fact that it's going to make crystal clear how terrified a lot of Americans still are of a smart, powerful woman. Some would rather kill a woman like that and be governed by a nitwit like Bush than face their fears about women. Living in the patriarchy; ain't it grand?

The European Parliament has suggested a possible solution to a dispute between EU states over the definition of vodka.
Poland, Sweden and Finland say only spirits distilled from grain or potato are truly entitled to be called vodka.
Other countries, such as Hungary, Spain and the UK, say there is no reason to change current rules, which allow it to be made from any agricultural produce.
MEPs have now said vodka not made from grain, potato or molasses should simply have its ingredients clearly labelled.
Vodka made from more than one ingredient would have to be labelled as "blended vodka".

More than 1,000 civilians were killed in Afghanistan in 2006, according to a report released by the international monitoring group, Human Rights Watch.
It says that the majority of the dead were killed by the Taleban or other anti-government forces.
It says more than 4,400 Afghans died in "conflict-related violence", twice as many as in 2005 and more than any year since the Taleban were ousted in 2001.
Meanwhile, a conference on Afghan reconstruction has begun in Germany.
The HRW report says that UN figures show that the conflict also displaced around 15,000 families - around 80,000 people - in southern Afghanistan.
Poland, Sweden and Finland say only spirits distilled from grain or potato are truly entitled to be called vodka.

Lord Levy was today arrested on suspicion of conspiring to pervert the course of justice, in the latest and most dramatic twist in the 10-month police investigation into cash-for-honours allegations.
The prime minister's personal envoy to the Middle East and the Labour party's chief fundraiser was later released on bail.
It was the second time Lord Levy has been arrested, but the first time in connection with a conspiracy charge - the same charge under which Downing Street aide Ruth Turner was arrested 10 days ago.

I'm such a dumbass, posting on the wrong thread.
From the New York Times:
WASHINGTON, Jan. 29 — President Bush has signed a directive that gives the White House much greater control over the rules and policy statements that the government develops to protect public health, safety, the environment, civil rights and privacy.
In an executive order published last week in the Federal Register, Mr. Bush said that each agency must have a regulatory policy office run by a political appointee, to supervise the development of rules and documents providing guidance to regulated industries. The White House will thus have a gatekeeper in each agency to analyze the costs and the benefits of new rules and to make sure the agencies carry out the president’s priorities.

But wait, there's more!
Business groups welcomed the executive order, saying it had the potential to reduce what they saw as the burden of federal regulations. This burden is of great concern to many groups, including small businesses, that have given strong political and financial backing to Mr. Bush.
Consumer, labor and environmental groups denounced the executive order, saying it gave too much control to the White House and would hinder agencies’ efforts to protect the public.
Tickling the mighty Clenis awake, Chris Matthews and Tucker Carlson are there to grab it and run!

When I first read the comment, I took it exactly as Liasson took it:
I can see how that would be. I heard the audio tape before I read about it and I must say that I took it as "the press" did.
The reason why I figured she was referring to Bill had to do with her nudge,nudge, wink, wink delivery, her use of the word "bad men" instead of simply "evil men", and the BIG laugh she received from the crowd.
I just don't see anything gut-bustingly funny about the comment if she's NOT referring to Bill. But I can see how a bunch of rubes in Iowa would yuk it up if she was referring to Bill, just like the press yucked up in this instance.
Just my 2 cents.
Oh, and it's absolutely pathetic that anyone gives such a huge shit about the quip, whatever it means. Hillary's joke was lame, in my opinion, however you interpret it but not nearly as the lame as the question itself.
