I trust that all Wellsians have become fans of Keith Olbermann, the most savvy, courageous and literate (not to mention, entertaining) of the present Cable News commentators (and a former sportscaster, at that). The last couple of days, he has outdone himself. He has qualified himself as a Wellesnet Grand Poobah, in excellent standing!

Yesterday, Monday, November 26, 2007, he was discussing the "Declaration of Principles" that President George Walker Bush signed that morning with Iraqi Prime Minister Malachi. The purpose of the document was (once again) to end-run Congress and Our Constitution, and if fully executed, to commit American troops to stay in Iraq forever.

What was "a declaration of principles"? asked Olbermann. "Like something out of CITIZEN KANE"?

Not only that, but this evening on CNN (Tuesday, November 27th, 8 p.m., EST, 5 p.m., PST; rebroadcast: Midnight, EST, 9 p.m., PST), perhaps entirely coincidentally, Olbermann has scheduled old Mercury Theater veteran, Norman Lloyd, for an interview.

Gather around the electronic fire, Wellsians!
