by the White House against NBC contains an interesting sub-plot: the sore question of whether the Iraq conflict is a civil war or not. Remember all the fanfare over NBC's decision that it was?

I must say, I thought at the time that it showed the rather self-regarding pomposity of some of my US colleages - now it comes back to haunt the station with the perfectly reasonable question: "Why didn't you give as much publicity to the end of the civil war (in your terms) as the beginning?"

Who would Jesus vote for? No doubts .

Barack Obama's contained a barely coded warning, I thought - go for Michelle and Cindy McCain becomes fair game. Is that what you want?

Meanwhile, the FT has a on energy - proof to me that the US is capable of grappling with its problems and making the changes necessary.
