1/2/2007 - WASHINGTON — Sen. Joseph Biden, the new Democratic chairman of the Foreign Relations Committee, in scheduling three weeks of hearings on Iraq threatens to interfere with President Bush’s two major speeches in January.
Biden, a critic of Bush’s war policy, announced last week that hearings would begin Jan. 9. That conflicts with the president’s speech on Iraq tentatively scheduled for Jan. 10. Three weeks of hearings are supposed to end around the time the president goes to the country again with his State of the Union address.
A footnote: The Foreign Relations Committee contains four presidential hopefuls: Democrats Biden, John Kerry and Barack Obama, and Republican Chuck Hagel. All oppose the ‘‘surge’’ in U.S. troops for Iraq expected from Bush

Bush will really be smoking those mary janes and drinking now. Let's hope he doesn't make a complete fool of himself. But this makes it easy for the impeachment.
Every layed plan of the Gerbil this year will foil...
Make a complete fool of himself? He is way past that!
