Just a quick note: Middle East expert Victor Mordecai will be interviewed by The Shrew and me at 2pm Eastern on RighTalk radio.

The collapse of the Lebanese government will be a primary topic...

The one on Fox just said "this is something that hasn't been seen in the Middle East in years!"

This is beautiful. Lots of flags awaving.

Someone needs to Photoshop GW, Rummy and Condi together with the phrase "Butt Stomping International coming soon to a Middle Eastern country near you."

"Bush had nothing to do with it."

Yeah, President Bush pulling the U.S. Ambassador to Syria had *nothing* to do with Syria figuring out that the U.S. military was about to enforce the President's words from his State of the Union speech last month that the U.S. would support those who rallied for freedom...

Sarah, you give "useful idiots" a bad name. I've seen more intellectual analysis from drunk weather forecasters.

Right, and it's no accident that Syria landed itself on the Axis Of Evil list shortly after September 11, 2001, by none other than President Bush in front of a joint session of Congress, because for decades, they've been on that notorious list of states that sponsor terror.

The spread of freedom is taking on a domino effect. Even the Whitehouse must be surprised by how quickly the President's words have taken hold.

The news is simply incredible to watch.

This is Bush's fault!

The Bush Doctrine has now become historic.

Free elections in Lebanon are now "on deck." Free elections in Togo are coming up in the next 60 days. Free elections in Egypt are scheduled for this Fall. Charles Taylor has left power in Liberia (once U.S. troops landed there). Afghanistan has had free elections. Iraq has had free elections. The Ukraine has had free elections. Even the Palestinians have had a fair election.

Elections in Jordan, and at a low level even in Saudi Arabia, too.

Boom!

The Bush Doctrine spreads freedom everywhere it is applied.

Bump for freedom!

The Lebanese people are fighting for their freedom and they will get it very soon when the terrorist Syrian regime troops and inltellgence apparatus will leave in defeat.

President Bush Great Middle East project to spread freedom and democracy is working very well.
