Bigot Preacher: The White House gave me an official title and told me go to spread bigotry!
White House Representative: Uh, no, we didn't. The man's insane.
Bigot Preacher: THEY DID TOO AND I HAVE IT ON VIDEO. TO ME, MY LATVIAN ARCHIVISTS!

Video not yet available from the preacher, but, if he supplies it, this will make me laugh.

Kitty: Monkey, what are you eating?

Me: It's curry. Very hot curry. You don't want my curry.

Kitty: Monkey, give me this "curry".

Me: No, Kitty, you can't have my curry. It is hot and your head will explode.

Kitty: But I WANT my head to explode! Monkey! Monkey! Why are you lifting me, Monkey? Hey! Put me down!

Me: Stay off the table, Kitty.

(a minute later, I turn my back for 5 seconds. There is a wet sticky head-exploding sound.)

Kitty: I hate you, Monkey.

She's no longer speaking to me.

Evolution in action: US Congress appears to be showing vestigial spine, testicles.

Pam Spaulding got the details and the links in a way that I'd have to copy her whole post to do justice to, but the short version is this:
o Senate strips Gonzales of his ill-gotten privilege of appointing US Attorneys without confirmation, after he fires 8 based on their "disloyalty"
o Congress demands that Rove and Miers testify before Congress on the matter.
o Bush says they'll only testify off the record and not under oath, and he'll force a constitutional crisis if they argue.
o Congress informs Bush that they will testify in public, under oath, and subpoenas will be issued to that effect tomorrow.
o Meanwhile, it's been discovered that the entire White House staff have been deliberately violating the Presidential Records Act by circumventing the automatic archiving system of the White House email system - by opening up the network to the outside and using *AOL* for sensitive information. Including illegal favour trading with Jack Abramoff, among other things.
