[Gritty]

Nice rant.

It has the added benefit of being true.

[YaYa123]

AP breaking. US Embassy in Beirut, Helicopter Rescue Assessment Teams have landed in Beirut to figure out how to get Americans out. Anchor adds, Univ of Beirut where many American students are, is right on the beach.

[Bahbah]

LOLOL.

[Fawn]

Yeah...tuimmy tried his hardest over and over to get Novak to say Plame was 'undercover'. LOL and Novak said it was already common knowledge with all her neighbors. He said he looked her up in Who's Who! What a crock. I hope she gets laughed out of court with her lawsuit.

[Peach]

This is so dangerous for our military; I'll be watching closely when it happens.

[defconw]

It's just crazy! Where dos the line form for the vomiting?

[TomGuy]

If he really wanted to help as opposed to strutting his brilliance he would be offering this stuff directly to the WH without the fanfare.

Well, that wouldn't get him any face time on TV. lol. Politicians have priorities, ya know --- and getting on TV is near the top of the list, just under getting the lobbyests to 'buy dinner and contribute to the off-shore retirement fund'.

[defconw]

I agree, way to much baggage. It's a shame, I don't dislike Newt. I just wish he would shut up sometimes.

[maica]

Absolutely right, and it has become so obvious that every day more people who do not follow politics at all are coming to the same conclusion, further eroding the "moderate middle" that dems used to count on keeping uninformed, except for their "feelgood" soundbites.

[defconw]

I hear you! That's why I suspect his motives.

[rodguy911]

What is our govt. doing to get 25,000 Americans out of Lebanon.

Sorry, I learned the hard way myself that when the govt. issues travel warnings (by the State dept., I believe) you need to listen to them and not ignore them because you have business interests or other interests that come first.

I consistently ignored travel warnings to the country of Haiti. Five days before my 40th birthday I got caught in the middle of a mini civil war when Duvalier was flow to France.

I have since learned to pay attention to travel warnings as some 5,500 people were killed over the next two weeks.

Finally I got out, but it was a life-changing event for me.

[samantha]

#46, this may be a repulsive thought, but what if Buffalo Butt Russert decides to act like a newsman/Journalist for a change instead of DBM/DNC and asked Maddie really probing questions and followups? What would happen if he did that, and she turned on him and put his head in a squeeze lock,vice grip leg hold until his eyes started to pop? She seems consumed with her own ego most of the time, and has a pass given to her by the DBM normally. This would be exciting if he would only realize he is supposed to be a Journalist not a DNC shill.

[defconw]

That's the one good thing that will last from this whole mess. People don't trust the media anymore.

[SCHROLL]

How'd Hannity get Graham out of the way to attach himself?

[snugs]

If there is any problems being reported about an area our company always checks with the foreign and commonwealth office before sending people abroad.

[popdonnelly]

Joe and Val picked a great weekend to drop their lawsuit. Lots of coverage here. >sarc

[Peach]

What is our govt. doing to get 25,000 Americans out of Lebanon.

Just to be clear, that was Wallace's question to Condi.

Banner on FNC now: Teams arrive in Lebanon to evacuate Americans.

[AliVeritas]

Can't go through Syria... so no Damascus Airport... just the US barred.
