John Humphrys the toothless Rottweiler

Today's big interview on Radio 4/Guardian. J Humphreys vs some deputy assistant secretary of something of the US.

J.H. - "Will you tell me PLEASE with which countries you are at war with?"
Repeats several times. Presumably the idea is you can only be at war with a nation, not AlQaeda. But we are.

So, you can't have a civil war.

We're also fighting the Taliban. Those lovable opponents of schooling for girls. Who behead headmistresses.

Old git is new libdem leader

Sir Menzies Campbell (64) is the new leader. The Guardian and others ridiculed Messrs Haig, Duncan-Smith and Howard for being bald. Seemed only BAD people become bald.

Apparently, tho', it's OK for liberals.
