Describe the atmosphere in the White House today...

Since it's always about politics and winning, I would assume the discussion would center around how much damage this is doing to the Republicans and how they can get on the offensive again? However, they not only have Snoopgate to worry about, they also have Karl Rove still on the docket with the Plame leak. I imagine there have been some pretty intense conversations today?

So they will probably pull out their old playbook. What has worked for them in the past? They need a big diversion. A really big diversion! But what could that be??

2. Bush even came back a day early

So I doubt if it was a very good day for them. January is going to be a pivotal month for everyone.

5. I heard that Specter was walking around with his arms all twisted...

And they are circling the wagons and making threats to all their loyal Republicans in the House and Senate..Bush is stomping his feet and doing a lot of cussing, I would guess...

6. Today in the White House? Is anyone there?

I kind of like to think that the household staff is laying back, raiding the liquor cabinets and watching football before the Morlocks return.

7. Bush doesn't know that the CIA planted a wire in the Oval Office...

while he was cutting and dragging brush down in Crawford...And he will be pissed when he finds out who the "leaker" was... :)

9. Melancholy

Knowing that perhaps their free reign to line their pockets at the expense of the American public may be winding down.
