Google News reported a CNN headline as Rumsfeld, Ridge lobby Congress for money for Iraqi war, terrorism, which may indeed have been the original headline - until people probably saw the same (disturbing) joke I saw. "That's right, Rumsfeld and Ridge are asking for money to conduct terrorism." The CNN page in question now reads Rumsfeld, Ridge lobby Congress for war, anti-terror money. I guess we can still have some fun in that - they're now lobbying congress for war, and for money that can stop a suicide bomb by being thrown at the bomber.
BTW: It looks like Senator Byrd is still one of very few in congress with a spine (even though Byrd has been guilty of pork barrel politics in the past, he's making up for it by standing firm against many of the wilder things this administration seeks):
"We can't afford to give this administration or any other administration a blank check. We didn't give you a blank check when you were secretary of defense in the 1970s and I don't expect to support giving the blank check to any administration."
