what ridiculously important bit of news will get dumped into the mj news vortex in hopes of it disappearing into oblivion today?

If I were a politician, I would have been confessing to everything last night.

The U.S. Supreme Court will declare Ahmadeinejad's re-election valid.

George W. Bush will admit to lying about Iraq.

we have our first two submissions:

1. monica conyers (wife to some kinda big deal in the u.s. house) pleads guilty to bribery charges. faces 5 years. or more likely 15 days of house arrest.

2. in a stunning turnaround surely completely unrelated to the last bit sen. john conyers (d-mi, chairman of the house judiciary committee and husband to the above) says that "the powers that be" put the kibosh on his probe of the entity formerly known as acorn.

unrelated, those two. completely.

good to see that the house is operating with such independence in its role as a watchdog.

Well, Madoff gets sentenced in 3 more days. Sounds about right for the funeral.
