Rove’s gift basket for the Seattle Times I think you're in Seattle - thought you might like this: By Michelle Malkin • August 20, 2007 02:09 PM Remember the fair, objective journalists at the Seattle Times who cheered Karl Rove’s resignation? Via the Media Blog and HA Headlines, here’s news in Howard Kurtz’s WaPo column of Rove’s farewell gift: In an embarrassment to the industry, some staffers at a Seattle Times news meeting cheered when Rove’s resignation was announced. To his credit, Editor David Boardman made the incident public and warned that staff meetings should not “evolve into a liberal latte klatch.” Rove responded by sending a basket of cookies to the newsroom, with a note saying “my wife shares in your enthusiasm.” I think a basket of pacifiers would have been more appropriate. How about you? michellemalkin.com

Of course, the article says nothing about the men being of apparent middle eastern descent. I'm surprised they published the photo. Men arouse suspicions on state ferries The two men are seen aboard a Washington State Ferry in this photo released by the FBI. YouNewsTV™ By KOMO Staff SEATTLE -- The FBI is asking for the public's help identifying two men who they say have been exhibiting unusual behavior on Washington state ferries. FBI spokeswoman Robbie Burroughs said the men have been reported by passengers and, while their behavior may have been innocuous, investigators would like to talk to the men. Burroughs said the men appeared to be taking an unusual interest in the workings of the boat, but she would not elaborate. Passengers and crew members on different runs on separate dates reported the men to authorities. Investigators would not disclose on which ferry runs the men were seen. Anyone with information about the men is asked to call the FBI's Seattle office at 206-622-0460.
