After Snowe's play, and Obama and Reid's slobber job over her, how's the Federalist Public Option sound to you now? Cuz it is looking to me like the choices now from the Senate will be Snowe's Trigger vs. Schumer's Opt Out. I strongly prefer the Federalist Option.

I asked for crime stories from our readers and got nuthin. As punishment, I am subjecting you to an Anna Nicole Smith story:

Anna Nicole Smith was ill, confused and isolated in a hotel room with a cornucopia of prescription drugs in the days before her death, an investigator testified Tuesday in a criminal case stemming from the celebrity model's overdose death. [. . .] The testimony was presented in a preliminary hearing involving charges that Smith's former lawyer-boyfriend Howard K. Stern and two California doctors conspired to illegally provide Smith with controlled substances before her drug-overdose death at age 39.

Until I get some better leads from our readers, I'll be going wall to wall Anna on you . . .

In the meantime, this is an Open Thread.

Sometimes it's good to be cynical.
