- AP reported yesterday that the Blackwater guards were required to face trial for shooting Iraqi civilians in Baghdad's Nihoor Square in the federal court in Washington, D.C. They had surrendered to authorities in Salt Lake City, UT hoping to be tried there where juries were likely to be more friendly. It was a classic effort at venue shopping to find a better court.
- Did the Obama team know of the Federal Investigation of Blagojevich? Did they distance themselves from any contacts with Blogojevich? Good move, if so.
- This one is very hard to resist.
