Powell Out of Retirement?, Bill and Obama Do Lunch, ATG Welcomes Palin...

Word has it that President Obama will be meeting with Former Secretary of State, Colin Powell. The two dignitaries will meet for 2.5 hours Wednesday afternoon at the White House. Following that meeting, Obama will meet with the current Secretary of Defense, William Gates. Let the rumor mill rumble pointing to Powell coming out of retirement to replace Gates. We'll see!

Obama met with another retired politician today - former President Bill Clinton. The two met for lunch in New York City at Mulino's to gab over hot topics, while wolfing down hot fish and pasta.

And if you haven't heard it by now, former President Jimmy Carter has called the recent Republican attacks on Obama - especially Joe Wilson's "You're a liar!" outburst - all racially motivated. He believes the Republicans are uncomfortable having an African-American president.

And ATG welcomes its newest retired politician, former Alaska Governor, Sarah Palin. According to numerous news sources, Palin has officially signed on with the lucrative Washington Speakers' Bureau. Start rakin' it in, Sarah!

That's all for now.
