By now, readers must know that my field is language. I hope by now we all understand that when the schedule looks like this, the key word is “public.” The Secretary of State is working very hard today, but she is not out in front of the cameras and mikes. Someone very, very close to her, who has been all over TV the past few days has stated that she is very distraught over the situation in Haiti and is staying in D.C. to work on this enormous aid mobilization over the weekend. So, just to be very clear, she is working and will be over the weekend. She is not making public appearances and has not scheduled any on-camera statements for today. Of course, any schedule is subject to change, but this is the official one for today. It came out a little after 11 a.m.
