"The ranking Republican on the Senate Armed Services Committee, John Warner, (R-VA) will introduce a resolution asserting that sending more troops to Iraq is a mistake later this afternoon.

Warner will be joined by Sen. Susan Collins (R-ME) and Democratic Sen. Ben Nelson of Nebraska. The measure calls on Bush to keep US troops out of any sectarian fighting in Iraq. The Warner resolution, sources say, will echo the plan put forth by the Iraq Study Group, a plan which Bush rebuffed."

""Another [potential juror], the former Post journalist, seemed to have a link to nearly every key player in the case. He had worked in the newspaper's Metro section, he said, where his editor was Woodward, a key defense witness. Until recently, he lived across an alley from Russert, a star witness for the prosecution. And he had gone to parties with The Post's Walter Pincus, another defense witness."

And now it seems he made the grade and is in the jury…

Asked about possible testimony by Post editor Bob Woodward, the man said, `I would say the one thing that he drilled into all of us was, don't take anybody's word for anything until you get the facts. I'd find it shameful to overweigh anything.''
