When washingtonpost.com sends out a news alert, you know there must be, er, some news. Of course sometimes the news is of more local than national interest. Still, when this alert was sent out, this morning at 3:58am EDT, you knew this was news that couldn't wait even till 4:00!

Report: Acta Says He's Out as Nationals Manager
Manny Acta told ESPNdeportes.com on Sunday he has been fired as manager of the Washington Nationals. The Nationals went into the All-Star break with the worst record in the majors at 26-61.
By 6:45am, the news was official. Even the Nationals acknowledged that Manny was history. Of course the Post scoop may have forced the team's hand.

Where's the story about Nancyn Pelosi being right and correct about Cheney and the CIA lying to Congress and to her? Hurry up... let's go on this... this is a HUGE development that seems to vindicate her... right? Maybe?
Seems to me the news media is just letting this one pass go before there is a stir about how Commie Cheney, or Premier Cheneyiski was about to turn the US into Khrushchev's dream.
Maybe we do need to talk about that.
So far the story seems pretty straightforward, and the kind of revelation that has never made any difference to the kind of people who ritually attack Speaker Pelosi -- facts not being one of their specialties. But maybe we do need to get on this, C3.
