Reporter's Note: Hooray, the weekend is here! But I’m still writing to the president. Hmmm, maybe I need to rethink this plan.

Dear Mr. President,

Nice to have a Saturday on my hands after a busy week. Assuming all goes as planned, I will be down by your house this morning for a road race. It’s the National Press Club’s “Beat the Deadline” 5K, so it’s not very long but I should see a lot of friends. If you happen to read this very early in the morning, come on out and run with us. It should be fun.

Not so much fun: The hunt for Gadhafi!

I’ve been getting a big kick out of this whole hand-wringing, international discussion about whether or not he represents a legitimate target for NATO. I’ve always been puzzled by such debates. While it’s a good idea to keep a lid on random, sneaking-around-the-corner assassinations of world leaders, it has always seemed to me that when any two countries or groups are fighting, such tactics…well, kind of just makes sense.
