1. Bush is hoping that Wilma gets a move on. Has been taking

shirt buttoning lessons to prepare.

2. The maps I've seen

have Wilma just battering brown people from other nations until the weekend, so the American public at large won't care about Wilma until then.

I just got back from a vacation cruise to Key West, Grand Cayman, and Cozumel, all of which are in Wilma's path this week. Lucky me!

Edited for clarity.

3. I think the American people do and will deeply care.

About government corruption. Even if Wilma impacts US.

Judge Perkins sounds tough:



DeLay's arraignment is set for Friday before state district Judge Bob Perkins in Travis County, Texas.

"Perkins believes that if God was charged with a felony, he would have to go through the booking process, too," said D'Ann Underwood, court coordinator for the judge.

Before Friday, DeLay, a Republican from Sugar Land, Texas, will likely spend about an hour being fingerprinted and photographed, she said. He'll also be required to state his attorneys for the record.

Travis County allows some defendants to do a "walkthrough" booking process, in which the defendant is photographed and fingerprinted. But DeLay's bond amount would be preset so he could immediately pay it and avoid a stay in jail.

10. Seems odd the Saddam trial starts at the same time..

Maybe I'm just overly suspicious.. but the Saddam Hussain trial will be a huge media event.

I think I heard it starts next week.. :eyes:

11. I thought I heard this Wednesday and may take only

1 day.

I'm thinking he gets summary execution before his lawyers get to put forth the defense.
