One of the great mysteries of the Iraq war has been solved. The puzzler goes back to then-Secretary of State Colin Powell's now-notorious briefing before the U.N. Security Council on Feb. 5, 2003, the one where he laid out the best case he could muster for the claim that Saddam had weapons of mass destruction

Subject: Error in your Toon
Your cartoon yesterday was misspelled. It should have been capital not capitol. I loved the toon anyway!!!!!
Betsy
Thanks for writing Betsy. I received several similar e-mails. But my spelling was intentional. I felt Bush had no capital with the Capitol. I was obviously wrong, he has capital with the Democrats who winced at censuring Bush.
Phototooning is hard, hard work!

3. The DC Dems still have their heads so far up their collective rectus
[yes, that's the proper Latin plural for rectum]

Tourists look at the rupture of the leading edge of the Perito Moreno glacier as the waters of Lake Argentino open a tunnel in the glacier, widening it until its collapse in a massive explosion of ice fragments and water, near the city of El Calafate in the Patagonian province of Santa Cruz, southern Argentina, March 13, 2006. The Perito Moreno glacier, part of the Los Glaciares National Park, a World Heritage site, is unusual in that it is still growing forward at the accelerated rate of between 30 and 60 cm per day.
