WRT Bush checkmating his enemies, if Hussein's capture is a checkmate it surely should have been anticipated by all the players, and they deserve their new status.

Hillary anticipated it and was all hawkish last Sunday. Her position fits well with her husband's hawkishness when he was in charge.

Lieberman is not hurt IMO and this completes his best week in a long time. I hope it preserves his campaign.

It is so much fun to look at one of the world's major assholes being rudely checked for lice. It is so much fun to see Baghdad residents coming out to the public square to celebrate! This is must-see TV. It's a great contrast to the video a few weeks ago, of people with their hands tied being thrown off of the roof of a three-story building on to the concrete below, of people having their tongues cut out and hands and heads hacked off in public.
