1. So he must be closing in on the idea that the Mohawk comment
may not be the truth? Wake me when he gets there.

2. LOL! I think he's (Tweety) been there all along. He knows
how slippery politicians are; he's learned lots from them.

4. Didn't Tweety interview Allen about his Confederate Flag loyalty?
Here's a Media Matters article about it - but not the transcript I was looking for.

"In an April 27 article, "George Allen's race problem," The New Republic reported that Allen once displayed a Confederate flag in his living room, had one on his car in high school, and "kept a noose hanging on a ficus tree in his law office, he said ... was part of a Western memorabilia collection." In a follow-up article, the magazine reported on May 4 that "some conservatives," including columnist Kathleen Parker, argued that revelations about Allen's high school photograph were irrelevant because the picture is dated. But the magazine noted that Allen has a "four-decade embrace of the Confederate flag," and that he "has either displayed the flag -- on himself, his car, inside his home -- or expressed his enthusiastic approval of the emblem from approximately 1967 to 2000."
