There's so much going on, I can't decide which story not to cover next.
Both of the so-called "liberal feminist bloggers" hired by John Edwards to blog for his campaign, and kept on by him after some wingnut attacks, have resigned their positions following even more attacks. FOX News is having fun with the story:

I've noticed a recent agreement whereby North Korea will supposedly, eventually, desist from the deveopment of nuclear arms ... is that too good to be true? And suppose they say "Look, ma: No weapons. Honest!" ... How would we know whether they were telling us the truth or not? Stay tuned.

There's been a bit of a dust-up between Australian Prime Minister John Howard and Senator Barack Obama, which began when Howard said a few ignorant things about what would happen if Obama became president.

I hope to have more to say about this later as time permits.
