diplomat resigns.... Nytimes

First Kiesling, now Brown. I'm not surprised. The current administration gives scant respect and regard given diplomacy these days.

BTW, did you hear that the Republicongress is now saying its guards will only use "Freedom shepherds"? They can't go with "Freedom dressing," yet, because no one has figured out a way to tell whether it used to be French or Russian....

The way the CIA and FBI are being bypassed on intelligence issues they could just as well resign wholesale. This administration just picks and chooses what it wants to believe and, failing that, makes it up.

You forgot the part about Dubya taking sedatives with meals... .
