Well, duh! Must be, cause they sure ain't there. Well, I just looked around the house, and they're not here, either. Hmm, have you checked around? Maybe in the garage?

LONDON, England (CNN) -- Alastair Campbell's announcement that he was stepping down as Prime Minister Tony Blair's director of communications took many political observers by surprise. Although Campbell had early indicated his desire to resign, it was the timing of his announcement -- coming in the midst of a crucial public inquiry into the apparent suicide of government weapons expert David Kelly -- that was most unexpected. "It's surprising. You'd think he would have waited for the end of the inquiry," Richard Beeston of The Times of London told CNN. "I guess he had had enough of being the whipping boy in this inquiry." Campbell, 46, was seen as the architect of the Labour Party's rebirth and Blair's election victory in 1997. Since then he has been the government's "spin doctor," handling its public image through the media..... .....Tim Bell, former political adviser to Margaret Thatcher when she was prime minister, said Campbell's resignation indicated the public had grown tired of the Blair "spin machine." Tony Blair is in deep shit by himself mow over the deceptions leading to the Iraqi invasion, and Bush is next. Del
