February 6, 2009--Lazy Friday

I'm typed out for the week and so will return to this spot on Monday.

It does, though, look as if the Ladies of Forest Trace had it basically right yesterday--Obama has, to quote one news report, taken the gloves off and prospects for the desperately-needed-though-not-perfect stimulus bill are good. The Senate should pass an improved version of it perhaps as early as today. Just as the "girls" were saying.

I'll keep you in touch with what else they might be thinking. I am finding them at least as reliable about what's going on in Washington as CNN and my beloved (though far-from-perfect) New York Times!
