While Democrats contemplate and/or celebrate and/or debate the demise of Osama Bin Laden under the leadership of President Obama, the Sunday Talk Show line-ups seem to indicate that The Villagers are getting all nostalgic for those heady days of codpieces, Mission Accomplished Banners, aluminum rods and Tora Bora.

That's right folks, it's Bush Time!

Savannah Guthrie of MSNBC news has just on reported that the death photo of Osama Bin Laden will not be released.

Appearing on Andrea Mitchell's show, Guthrie said that the death photos of Bin Laden are particularly grisly and the majority of senior White House personnel felt that releasing the pictures would only inflame the worldwide Muslim community.

For those expressing doubts about the reality of OBL's death, no amount of photos will satisfy their conspiracy theories.

I, for one, feel that the correct decision was made. Releasing the photos would serve little purpose and only cause untold damage.

Since DK4Beta will soon transform into The Real Thing, I wanted to write a useless diary here before Beta all goes away into the ether.

The color scheme in the new digs is truly...something...I can't find the word(s). Mind numbing? Soothing? Creative? Early Creamsicle? Nothing captured the essence of the new colors "UNTIL" I found this little beauty and I knew I had found it!

Follow me below the fold....

Matt Bai has a story up now that strikes me as outrageous.

He's accusing Kos of scrubbing Web pages that were inflammatory towards Rep. Giffords.

Yeah, you heard me.

Via Politico, Vice President Joe Biden put his foot firmly into his mouth. Again.

While visiting New Hampshire today, Biden did his own strange take on getting the base fired up and ready to go by chastising his fellow Democrats for "whining".

Yep, the man with the mangled tongue (mis)spoke at a frozen yogurt plant by sweet talking to those assembled saying that he wanted to “remind our base constituency to stop whining and get out there and look at the alternatives. This President has done an incredible job. He’s kept his promises."

The 2009 Bulwer-Lytton Fiction Contest Winners have been announced and not a moment too soon, IMO.

This award is bestowed on those writers who compete to compose the worst opening first line of an imaginary novel.

This hilarious and coveted award is named in honor of Edward George Bulwer-Lytton, the writer who began his novel, "Paul Clifford" with the now famous words: "It was a dark and stormy night..."
The complete sentence that Bulwer-Lytton wrote is an absolute gem of awfulness and deserves to be presented in all its glory. Sit back and enjoy:

It was a dark and stormy night; the rain fell in torrents — except at occasional intervals, when it was checked by a violent gust of wind which swept up the streets (for it is in London that our scene lies), rattling along the housetops, and fiercely agitating the scanty flame of the lamps that struggled against the darkness.”

Good news!

The DOI has just released an update stating that Secretary of Commerce Gary Locke and Secretary of the Interior Ken Salazar today announced that the two departments are revoking an eleventh-hour Bush administration rule that undermined Endangered Species Act (ESA) protections. This decision requires federal agencies to once again consult with federal wildlife experts at the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration - the two agencies that administer the ESA – before taking any action that may affect threatened or endangered species.
