I forgot to do my MoDo prediction yesterday (so sue me), but in any case today she uses her powers for good:



But now we need the old Evil Empire to help us with the new Axis of Evil and the Evildoers. (Even though the ex-Evil Empire is helping the country that dubbed us the Great Satan gain nuclear capability.) So now Russia is the Good Empire.

At the Kremlin signing ceremony on Friday for the arms treaty, before a blindingly gold czarist throne draped in ermine, Mr. Bush hailed the new spirit of trust this way: "That's good. It's good for the people of Russia; it's good for the people of the United States. . . . For decades, Russia and NATO were adversaries. Those days are gone, and that's good. And that's good for the Russian people, it's good for the people of my country, it's good for the people of Europe, and it's good for the people of the world."

In other words, it's good.
