I keep switching channels and very little reporting.Seems this momentous event caught the MSM witht their pants down. They are waiting for word from the execs on how to spin it.

Moose, cheese, bit my sister, Set us up the bomb, Stuned, Beeber, Daschle deeply saddened, Bush knew, It's Bush's fault, This is hugh, Are you series?, Make/Mark your time, All your Syria are belong to us. There. Now there are NO EXCUSES for someone trashing the thread with all that garbage!
Thank you. I wish you would do that on every thread.
Yes, it does get very old, doesn't it? I thought I would do it one more time, just for good measure. If more people would speak up about it, we may could read a thread without wading through the garbage. It's very funny at first, but it gets old after awhile.

Blame Asman's producers...not Asman. He reports what he is told to report.

Lebanon's Syrian-backed Prime Minister Omar Karami, under popular pressure after the assassination of an ex-prime minister, said on February 28, 2005 his government was resigning. 'Out of concern that the government does not become an obstacle to the good of the country, I announce the resignation of the government I had the honor to lead,' Karami told parliament in Beirut. Karami is seen in Beirut February 24.

I love the headband worn by the guy in the bottom center of that photo: Independence 05. (Too bad we couldn't have Bush in '08, sigh.)

This(protest)must be very disturbing to Assad,the Saudi Royal family,and other authoritarian regeims in the middle east.I'd like to know what prominent democrats(Kennedy,Boxer,etc)think about the protests?I'd say the pucker factor has been raised considerably.

One can only hope we've been watching for a column of trucks headed to Syria.

The terrorists are imploding. And the more violence they use, the more they hasten their own demise.

The Dims know the presidency of GWB is monumental in its historic impact. That's what they can't stand. If GWB had a (D) after his name, the Dims would be euphoric.

You make a good point.
I just don't think euphoria is warranted and I don't think there should be delusions of a grand vision sweeping the ME.

Don't forget Libya; no elections, but radical change.
The map is sure changing.

oh I'm sure there are a few Dems right now with smelling salts under thier nose!They'll be working the revisionist history soon. Today they claim 'we were all cold warriors.' Not. Many were Stalinists or apologists for Stalin and his progeny. Ten years from now, they will claim they supported freedom in the Middle East. And the Old Media will give keep giving them a pass.
