>>>That's when Mitchell passed along criticism that the US should have sent a higher-level envoy sooner. To bolster her argument, she played a clip of one James Steinberg, who blistered as 'inexplicable' the administration's failure to be more directly involved. The screen graphic identified Steinberg by his University of Texas affiliation. But a quick Googling reveals that he was the Deputy National Security Advisor . . . in the Clinton administration. Truth in packaging, Andrea?<<<
Everyone in the world now knows Clinton hired incompetent boobs for his administration (under the assumption their incompetence made him look brighter). So naturally a Clinton-apologist like Mitchell would try to cover up Steinberg's association.
> The Bush administration is not responding effectively to the crisis because it is 'overwhelmed' and spread too thin by involvement elsewhere.
And the Left certainly has done all they can to make Bush's task easier, haven't they?
Thanks, GL.
p.
Most of them think they are experts in virtually everything. and therefore qualified to do an instant analysis on any topical issue. Their blather is mostly biased and superficial.
Because they have the same goal -- the destruction of the U.S.
Their tactics may be different, and certainly their post-U.S. vision is radically different. But their goal is the same, and their enemies are the same -- Israel, and conservative America.
Folks, we have a winner, you can stop calling the station now.
Good post. Nice insight into the liberal mindset.

This is something everyone should always keep in mind for ALL these anchors...they are nothing more than news READERS, they also use ear buds for backup's. If the prompters go down and the ear buds fail...they are brainless robots.
From updated version of NewsBusters story:
Responding to Lauer's question as to how far the US would go in backing Israel, Mitchell stated: "This is a fragile situation. It could really undermine this fledging democracy in Lebanon which the U.S. Is trying to point to as a show place for the Middle East."
The view of Lebanon as a fragile, fledging democracy is widely-accepted. However, when I interviewed Jed Babbin - former Deputy Undersecretary of Defense in the Bush, Sr. admin - on my TV show 'Right Angle' last evening, he offered another perspective on Lebanon. Babbin, author of a book warning of a likely war with China, pointed out the Hezbollah terror group is an official part of of the Lebanese government. In Babbin's view, it is more accurate to think of Lebanon as akin to the Hamas-dominated Palestinian Authority.
Great report! And Andrea Mitchell continued her "Blame Bush" theory on Imus. He even asked why she would go after our president at a time like this. Oh, she prefaced her criticism with "critics would say....", but that was totallly and obviously just a ruse to cover her own opinion.
Almost 10 am. oh goodie, almost time for The Joe and Val Show. I'll watch it on C-Span, but I do wonder if the networks will break from regular programming to show it live. (just kidding, I'm sure the networks will do it for them)
sure hope, If the Wilsons take questions, that you can give them to us. MSM quesstions will be far more interesting than the Wilsons' answers.
should read: "I'm sure the cables will do it for them"
9/11 initiated World War IV. The "Clash of Civilizations" about which experts like Huntington warned, was on us. The problem with people like Mitchell is that they cannot conceive of the actions occuring in Lebanon and Gaza as part of a single tapsestry being woven by Islamists. It stretches from Indonesia through Somalia to the Holy Land into Europe and the United States itself. They are still convinced that "diplomacy" can resolve individual clashes. The events in Israel today allow the Democrats and their parasites to lash Bush and play a card that is anti-Israel and verges on the anti-Semitic. That Mitchell (a Jew who along with her husband Alan Greenspan would surely hang from a lamppost in Gaza if they lived there today) falls so eaily into this trap, is as Democrat senators like to say, very disturbing.
My most heartfelt wishes for Andrea and the rest of the main-slime media:
May the bleeding piles beseige them. May they get the seven-year-itch, but it last for 49. May their tongues cleave to the roof of their mouths and swell to three times normal size. May their children become Orthdox Jews, Evangelical Protestant, or conservative Catholic. May they fall in the outhouse as a Ukranian regiment finishes a prune stew and 12 barrels of beer. May a beet grow in their stomachs and they pee borscht. May all their teeth fall out of their heads, except one, and that one should get a toothache. And when they are old and feeble, and total wrecks, may their spines fall through their a-holes and break their effing necks!
Well stated.
Alan Greenspan - who used to be an Ayn Rand groupie.
Go figure.
He's someone I often use to bolster my argument that the older most people get the softer in the head they think. Greenspan went from Objectivism to Democrat - a long road to travel.

Oil futures for August (the nearest futures available) hit $79.45 at the open today, but have pulled back to $77.25, still up $.55.
Futures for February and March reached $81.24. All futures for 2007 which have traded today are currently over $80 a barrel.
I hate to say it, but $100+ per barrel is most certainly a possibility in the near future.
