Never fear! The beautiful thing about this is it doesn't matter whether the media picks up on it or not. Because Bush or Powell certainly will, and we're going to hear it again. "They won't even deny that they have missiles that can hit Israel." It's too good an angle for them to ignore.

This story can't die. It will be too much fun watching the French and Germans try to explain it away.

They're interested in mentioning something as volatile as this -- ad nauseam -- ONLY when it's spoken by a conservative/republican, and especially if can be tied directly to race.

Fox cut away from the press conference....immediately. They rewound the tape and played it again while their hosts commented on what he said [I dont doubt for a second that Shep and Brit will bring it up when they are on].

MSNBC went on as if nothing had happened [probably because they didnt think anything had]. I dont know what CNN did because I dont even know [intentionally] where they are on my channel guide but I would'nt doubt that they sponsored the whole friggin event and then through an afterpress conference party with their Euro-confreres.

For their part, Foxnews went on to a reporter outside the Vatican and he repeated what Azziz did.

It may be that none of the other spinzones talked about it....but Foxnews did...after they pulled the plug.

Foxnews wins another round.
