CNN scrolling along bottom of screen: "sense of lawlessnes in baghdad".

Just as I read your post, Chip Reid, embedded reporter in Baghdad and on MSNBC, says yes there's some looting but they did not have the sense it was anarchy, chaos, or any long term problem. Actually, as he speaks I realize I heard this report from Chip earlier.

CNN is a disgrace. When they had stories of REAL problems we all know they chose to look the other way. Still do.

Rumsfeld said the same vase stealing scene was playing over and over. Hmmmm, how about a montage of the same vase pictures, (perhaps one that is in dashels office?)
