So what's the title


"Final Justice." 7th in the series. I have read all of Greg Isles, and really like him. I started the Alan Furst, but it was just to dark and doleful for me. "Betrayal," the story of Aldrich Ames, is by three Washington reporters and is great. Excellent BG on the inner workings of the FBI and CIA.

I will be interesting to watch how the Powell presentation plays out. It is a measure of his likability that even you would consider voting for him. He is obviously a much tougher character than he appears. No one cuts his way to the top in DC, unless he is an infighter. The fact that Armitage is his protege says a lot. That guy eats nails for breakfast!

We will see if the French have painted themselves into a corner where Powell can't squeeze them a way out. If you think Bush is not going to order the troops into Iraq, (if Saddam is still in power,) in the next four weeks, you are smoking something illegal.
