And in World Events...

As a counterpoint to the Bush Inauguration, Victor Yushenko's inauguration in the Ukraine has been scheduled by Parliament. Vodkapundit reports on Vladimir Putin's response:
"Accept my congratulations and warmest wishes in connection with your election to the post of president of Ukraine," Putin said in a statement.

"The development of good-neighborly and equal relations with Ukraine is one of the most important national priorities of Russia," he said.
Putin continued:
"And we promise not to poison you anymore. Unless you do something we really really don't like. Then its fair game."

"Oops. I mean Russian had nothing to with that poisoning thing. Sorry, that last bit was from my speech after the meeting of the Russian Agricultural Authority. I must have gotten the two sets of index cards mixed up."
Putin then did his best not to look like a giant Russian rat. His nose didn't help.

Ok ok I made up that last part. Sorry couldn't resist.
