Washington: A long-awaited Senate showdown on the war in Iraq was shut down before it even started yesterday, when nearly all Republicans voted to stop the Senate from considering a resolution opposing President Bush's plan to send 21,500 additional combat troops into battle.So much for that good for the goose is good for the gander nonsense.

Whatever happened to "up or down" votes?
Excuses, Excuses….
I know, I haven't written much lately. The Bears, work, the car's been in the shop forever, it's too damned cold, etc. And tomorrow, I'm off to the nation's capital for a conference and to see my kid, who is spending the semester there. I may have some random thoughts before the very early departure tomorrow, but I leave you in good hands, and will see you all Monday.
