This bit of the Village Voice article was a little disturbing: Undaunted, McDermott challenged the credibility of White House attempts to prove the necessity of attacking Iraq. "It would not surprise me if they came up with some information that is not provable," he said. "I think the president would mislead the American people." A White House spokesperson responded, "The American people know he hasn't misled anyone and the American people know he won't mislead anyone." The facts suggest otherwise. In a September 7 press conference with Prime Minister Blair, Bush leaned on what he called a report from the International Atomic Energy Commission, based on Hussein's nixing of inspections in 1998. "I would remind you that when the inspectors first went into Iraq and were denied?finally denied?access, a report came out...that they were six months away from developing a weapon," the president said. "I don?t know what more evidence we need." But last week the commission claimed that no such document exists. "There?s never been a report like that issued from this agency," Mark Gwozdecky, head of the group, told Reuters last week. Asked why Bush referred to an apparently imaginary document, the White House claimed he was really talking about a report from 1991. But Gwozdecky told Reuters no paper to that effect was issued by his agency in 1991, either.

Oh my lord, even roasted asparagus? I suppose it will apply to the Sicilian roasted carrots recipe I now have the cranberries and pine nuts for, then. We gave up all french fries when the news was first out, and haven't had potato chips in years. But green and orange vegetables? Pringles, anyone? <vbg> I like tea, BTW, though I don't drink it often enough (usually I have Diet Coke at breakfast time). When I was a kid I absolutely hated asparagus, but now it is ok and I eat it now and then. What is a Sicilian roasted carrot (as opposed to just a roasted carrot?)???

and since you do it often, it must be really good. No, but it's pretty good and I'm really lazy. I have to make an effort to get my daily dose of veggies but there are definite limits to the amount of effort I can muster for this purpose. I just put veggies in a single layer, separated, on a cookie sheet, spritz them with olive oil Pam, and roast them at 400 degrees until I can smell them from my computer on the other side of the house. I don't recall ever seeing a recipe, only a discussion on DAR of the idea, which for some unknown reason had simply never before occurred to me.
