Good morning.
The President, The First Lady, members of his cabinet, leaders in Congress and diplomats from around the world are all at the National Prayer Breakfast this morning. As CREW's Melanie Sloan wrote yesterday:
Unbeknownst to most, this seemingly innocuous event is hosted by a shadowy religious organization known as "the Fellowship," or alternatively, "the Family." They should not go.They should not. I'm sure most attendees have no idea who or what "the Fellowship" is. But, the group's members in Uganda were pushing the "kill Gays" bill. This is really not about prayer, it's about power. And, abuse of power.
Here we go again. D.C. is under a "Winter Storm Watch" from Friday morning til Saturday evening:
ACCUMULATIONS... THIS STORM IS LIKELY TO PRODUCE 12 OR MORE INCHES OF SNOW IN THE WATCH AREA... WITH A GOOD CHANCE FOR LOCALIZED AMOUNTS OVER 20 INCHES.At least I can cross country ski. That's going to be the best way to get around town.
UPDATED: It's now a "Winter Storm Warning":
* PRECIPITATION TYPE...HEAVY SNOW.
* ACCUMULATIONS...STORM TOTAL ACCUMULATIONS OF 16 TO 24 INCHES.
The DNC's Winter Meeting starts today and runs through Saturday at the Capitol Hilton. And, the teabaggers are holding their for-profit convention in Nashville this weekend.
Let's get threading...
