CARLSON: So, what do we know about what he as a person thinks? I mean, do we—are there any insights into his personal judicial philosophy? ABRAMS: You know, we know a little bit. We‘ve seen opinions that he‘s written for the past couple of years. But, even on criminal law issues, they haven‘t been uniformly conservative. I mean, I was reading up on one case where a criminal defendant was convicted of fraud. And he joined with a—he joined with an unlikely alliance in that case, which wouldn‘t be the ordinary case.

France sees role for self, U.N. in post-war Iraq By Tom Heneghan PARIS, March 18 (Reuters) - Far from feeling sidelined now that war is imminent, France sees itself as a key player in the next phase of the Iraq crisis when it comes to managing the country after Saddam Hussein is gone.

Hey girls - Cheney is on live with Larry King right now. All I heard him say is that what some people were saying was "Dispicable" !

Can't find earlier post, but Drudge and all others did not post the entire quotes from Bush's press conference today. This is what he really said about the "leaks". And boy was he fired up when he said it too! Q: Mr. President, can you tell us what prompted you to write the memo to Congress about briefing on intelligence matters, why you think such restrictions are appropriate? And could you also address what threat you think these limited anthrax exposures pose more generally? Is it linked to terrorism at all? THE PRESIDENT: Well first, Mr. Chancellor, we had a ...

Would someone please pay close attention to an exchange that occured between Burton & Nolan close to the end of the hearings in regards to the contract the WH signed yesterday with a company who is to retreive the E's etc. I think Burton already has plans to get all the tapes that are being stored; they are not going to wait 7-8 months for the WH to do it; and they have their own contractor do the retreival. (& I can't believe nobody picked up on this today during the discussions) We need someone to pay very close attention ...

Air Clinton? President tries a jump shot in political speeches ASPEN, Colo. (AP) — President Clinton tried to put a little bounce in a couple of political speeches over the weekend by telling Democratic supporters Republicans now regard him less as a "bad guy'' and more as a Michael Jordan of politics.
