1. It's hard to tell.......
Shrub is taking another long weekend at the pig ranch, so who knows what might happen?

9. Actually, I heard on NPR earlier today that Vincente Fox is meeting
with * at the pig-farm-movie-set ranch this afternoon. So I think it will be something about legalizing all of those illegals (a subject so close to *'s base voters' hearts).

2. 60% chance of another coup attempt in Venezuela this weekend...
Edited on Fri Mar-05-04 02:13 PM by htuttle
...With scattered Iraq propaganda likely as a 'Bullshit front' moves through the continental US.

Later on, a 20% chance of a development in Afghanistan/Pakistan, 40% chance of a Shia uprising in Iraq, with occasional bomb blasts expected before Monday.

This has been your Friday Five O Clock Surprise Forecast, brought to you by htuttle

8. "Ready to move on to second round of ads"
"After the first round were soooooooo succesful"

That is how they would put it. I would bet more on a coup in Venezuela, unfortuneately.

6. Won't a Martha verdict provide cover for damn near anything?
I'm leaning toward the Venezuela coup thing now.

11. It must be a biggie
They know that the news (for at least the next 48 hours,) will be All Martha, All The Time, if it's not All Ashcroft.

I'm wondering what it is they'll be trotting out.

I told DH that there would be a verdict today last night before we went to bed.

12. Kenny Boy will be charged with something
Have to move him though courts fast so Shrubbie can pardon him before he leaves office.
