As I post each morning, here are some of the political stories thatmight not be worthy of their own posts, but are nonetheless newsworthy:

  • The US is spending roughly $227,000 per minute in Iraq.
  • This Sunday, Karl Rove will be a guest on NBC's Meet the Press, CBS' Face the Nation and Fox News Sunday.
  • Tony Snow will resign as White House Press Secretary for financial reasons.
  • Fox News admits that its employees spend time altering Wikipedia articles that are critical of the conservative network.
  • Next week, the Daily Show will show footage of correspondent Rob Riggle's trip to Iraq -- yes, for real.  The reports were filed this week.  Riggle will arrive back on US soil this weekend.  The coverage will be shown starting on Monday.
  • GOP presidential candidate Rudolph Giuliani spent 7% as much time at Ground Zero as the average rescue worker  Last September, Giuliani said, "I spent as much time here as anyone ... I was here five, six times a day for four months."
  • Republican Fred Thompson will officially announce his candidacy for president next month.
  • Nevada Democrats (Research 2000): Clinton - 33%, Obama - 19%, Edwards - 15%, Richardson - 11%.
  • Florida Democrats (Rasmussen): Clinton - 43%, Obama - 24%, Edwards - 11%.

If we left something out, it's because we either wrote about ityesterday or are scheduled to do so in an individual post later today. Otherwise, feel free to add any stories in the commentbox.
