Benito, Eat Your Heart Out: Through history there have been few dictators whose personal architectural legacy and monuments to their own ego can rival the proposed Clinton library described in Frank Murray's piece today in the Washington Times.

Not to Worry: Looks like Cable Guy won't be rummaging through your drawers after all. The Select Committee on Home Boy Security has dumped the proposed and ludicrous TIPSs idea. They've also dumped a national ID card proposal. Perhaps someone told them we've all got one anyway. Its called your Social Security card. Ever try to do much of anything important without one?

Put A Sock In It: Whatever advice the "20th highjacker" Zacarias Moussaoui is getting through the food slot in his cell door, it sure is buying him time. U.S. Judge Leonie Brinkema has given him a week to get it together before he pleads guilty, again. Could he possibly have been watching James Traficant on a bootlegged TV? Here's the text of his ravings yesterday.

Oh Joy, Oh Rapture, Oh, Please, Please, Please: A new poll shows heavy support among dems for Algore running again. If they want really huge numbers, why don't they poll Republicans? Can anyone think of another human being other than Darva Conger that would be easier for W to beat? Surely there have to be wiser dem heads who know what a high price that would be to pay for the pain of Florida.

Better Late Than Never: Israelis, weary of seeing innocent civilian body parts littering their restaurants and streets, have come up with an idea long overdue. Arrest the families who profit from making bombs out of their children. Like most really good ideas, it is clever and simple.

Back To Normal: Hillary Clinton, who has noticeably held her acid tongue in her new role as Senator, couldn't control herself yesterday and jumped ugly with Russ Feingold according to the NYDaily News. This is an Ldotter inside joke but we do have a few of those F*J*B buttons left from an earlier slander she visited on a Jewish campaign worker back in Arkansas. We'll just hang on to them.
