Friday Morning News Briefs

A quick glance at the headlines show these topics:

• U.S. Trade Deficit hits $726B
• Libby is singing like a canary and making an attempt to throw Cheney and George under the bus.
• Brownie is testifying and trying to deflect his blame to the Dept. of Homeland Security (will no one in this government take responsibility?)
• VW is warning of a possible job cut of 20,000

And from Fark.com, which I visited regularly prior to my blogging days:

• "You take your eye off your baby for just one minute, and they start sucking on the dog's teat" - Reuters link
