Friday Links

No sausages in sight, but a couple of things from the web that may or may not interest you. First of is the pic from Mr Kirkwood back over in Europe, telling us to stop whinging about the snow in Denver (thanks mate - 6 weekends in a row if the storm comes as predicted tomorrow - u know what that's doing to my social life! I even had to go out for beers last night, just in case!).


Next a (reportedly on the record) summary of why the US should institute something similar to Prime Ministers Question Time like we have in the UK - Bush would have been kicked out a long time ago:
In an interview, Pelosi also said she was puzzled by what she considered the president's minimalist explanation for his confidence in the new surge of 21,500 U.S. troops that he has presented as the crux of a new "way forward" for U.S. forces in Iraq.

PELOSI: He's tried this two times — it's failed twice. I asked him at the White House, 'Mr. President, why do you think this time it's going to work?'

BUSH: Because I told them it had to.

PELOSI: Why didn't you tell them that the other two times?
Someone tells Blair "there is no war on terror" (finally)
