FLU BE GONE — Almost over the flu and a sunny day outside, we might actually leave the house today — without a pocketful of tissues and cough drops!
Wish us luck and send us those tips.
NEW TALENT — Governor Matt Blunt has grabbed Sen. Jim Talent’s former communications director to be his own. Rich Chrismer was announced yesterday as the governor’s new mouthpiece.
Reports place Chrismer’s new paycheck at around $92,000 ($22K more that the last guy, Spence Jackson). The Gov’s office says Chrismer’s new role will include more duties than his predecessor.
We hope that doesn’t mean they’re going to make him physically remove his own critics from press conferences. Spence was always very clear, that’s what Capitol security was for!
SECRET AGENT MAN — This whole “Senate shake-up” thing hasn’t been all bad news for the old Republican guard. Senator Kit Bond just landed himself a nice spot as the new Number Two on the powerful Senate Intelligence Committee.
Bond’s new assignment will place him in charge of overseeing, among other things, the nation’s foreign and domestic spying operations. Just call him Bond, Kit Bond.
