Ok, Yeah, Sure, it Could be Global Warming, But . . .
I'd like to think the great warm weather we've had here in DC for the past couple of days - 70 degrees in early November! -- has less to do with global warming and more to do with the sun shinning down on this city after the long, deep darkness of our collective soul under the reign of King George.
But now we have a new wind sweeping through the city, a wind so wonderful that it has swept out the prince of darkness himself, donald rumsfeld. I don't even mind that he'll go off to earn millions in speakers fees to those rich and deluded enough to still want to hear his ravings. I'm just so glad to have him gone.
The sun is shining and I have new hope for the world.

Lapopessa, what a great post - lovely words! You brightened my day. I'll brighten yours: If Rumsfeld becomes a fugitive from the German court (see Time's exclusive story on this), his lectures will be confined to the U.S. Otherwise, countries with extradition arrangements with Germany would have to arrest him and hold him for the German court. Enticing thought!
yeah- i still think it is global warming :) with so many changes around the dc area- it has been hard to keep up. i am not enjoying the rain- but my heating bill will hopefully be lower. :)
