So far the fact that a US foreign service officer was killed doesn't seem to be getting a lot of comment here. His car was apparently intentionally rammed by a bomb-laden car driven by a terrorist.

I agree. Two FSOs were also injured. Pakistan is a dangerous place. Our embassy in Islamabad was burned down on November 20, 1979,. I visited the burned out embassy a few days later. Eventually, Pakistan paid for the rebuilding, but they could not repay the loss of life.

Yeah, a little disconcerting, as it may mirror the msm's tepid coverage, (and) since the msm has shifted into high gear once more with the BUSH KNEW mantra (Bush and Rove tinkering with the weather from the White House basement) as Katrina bore down on Nawlins.

Bush knew BUSH knew BUSH KNEW!!!

(msm) WHAT? Terrorist(s) killed an American in Pakistan? (we're focused on the REAL news) but, but, but, Bush wasn't prescient!
