This just in: Fenty spokesperson Carrie Brooks reports that general counsel Peter Nickles will not be named to the permanent attorney general post in the wake of Linda Singer’s resignation

Nickles “will be named as acting AG while a search is conducted for a permanent replacement,” Brooks writes in an e-mail.

    A vexing question. The filter we use does not seem to be so good at recognizing these spam comments. We flag them when we see them. They seem to be designed to try to get through both the computer filter and the human filter, with their relatively grammatical language (better than just a markov generator anyway), innocuous gmail addresses, and tumblr/ning/etc urls.
