News Stories I'm not Breaking
Been too long since the last McAdamsYeah, so it's pretty funny to have made myself one of the last footnotes on the election of 2006 by accurately reporting Donald Rumsfeld's departure about twelve hours earlier than the major networks - according to the Wall Street Journal. Frankly, I don't know how to top that.
There are some news stories that I won't be breaking over the weekend, as I'll be away ( with my baby) before my new job starts next week. Karl Rove will not shrink to 4 and 1/2 inches big to match the size of his reputation. Chelsea Clinton and George P Bush will not be engaged this weekend. Speaking of engagements - it seems that rumors of the break up of McGosling are false, so I will not be meeting with Rachel this weekend.
I know we think something big happened this week, but trust me. We're still in Iraq for a while, we still have millions upon millions of "undocumented workers" in our country.
And just on a personal note. Reihan told you who he was recently. Right now the most salient aspect of my identity is this: I'm the luckiest guy on the planet. Beyond that I'm an Aspiring Dandy (west coast), a reactionary Catholic, an American, a nationalist conservative, and a sympathizer with all secessionists (from Vermont to Dixie) and no, that doesn't contradict my nationalism. While I'm not irritable, I am a huge Johnny Drama fan (thanks for the link Reihan). I've yawped "Victory!" Tarvald-style when I broke the Rumsfeld scoop.
