Good morning from a beautiful Washington, DC, which is saying something considering some of the weather going through the south right now. Big week ahead that includes some softball, a 21 run and the release of this. If you don't have your tickets for the IMAX production I will be disappointed since there isn't one for me to go to out here.

On to some links:

The Washington Nationals - aka the worst team in baseball - aka the organization who's best player isn't signed yet - aka the team no one in their home town cares about - fired the guy probably least responsible for how bad they are, Manny Act. It has to be rough to know in March that the best player in your organization is still in college...

This is only funny until you realize what the consequences could have been. Thank God no one was hurt.

Big day in Washington, with a Supreme Court confirmation.

Worst-case scenario in Iran?

NYTimes slant on Palin's resignation.

A guy who changed parties just to get re-elected is calling someone else a "flagrant hypocrite".

Kim Jong Il - who I once compared to Hitler - continues to slowly die, with one of his sons set to take control of a volatile country. Can't wait to see Frank Caliendo/Charles Barkley's response.

Barbara Streisand talks about the environment. She is also a donor.

Politico also has an entire page about the Waxman-Markey bill.

Time to actually work. Stay Classy.
