Thanks for the fair & balanced reporting Lou!

" DOBBS: Well, Ed, let's put this story in some context and bring some perspective to it, as well. Donald Rumsfeld talking about lives having been lost, Scott McClellan doing precisely the same thing. It is important to point out that in Afghanistan and Pakistan the imams, the Muslim clergy, are quick and invigorated to turning their people to emotional exercises, whether riots, as in this case, or something more constrained. This -- to put this on "Newsweek" is -- is really a bit (ph) strong, is it not? "

" DOBBS: I suppose what I would ask you is this: did the White House in any way criticize the Pakistani government or Pakistan leadership for having its own security forces fire into a crowd of protesting Muslims concerned about the Quran? "

1. I Liked His
remark about Condi's Speech concerning Syria and guarding their borders. He said I am glad the WH is concerned about someone's borders. LOL

2. Whew!
I didn't see last nights show, but, after reading the transcript, I think I should have. Combine that with Olberman's stories and Democracy Now this morning and it's pretty obvious the noise level is rising dramatically. How inspiring!
The lame stream media can almost be forgiven for blowing it on the revelation of who really ain't in charge in Washington. Can one really hope the flood gets great enough to wash this particular bag of trash out of D.C.?

Hardly likely, with the slam/slur machine attempting to get the citizens worked up enough to declare war on North Korea or Iran so the coming draft can be justified with, "We aren't drafting soldiers to fight in Iraq, see?"

God, what a dirty, power mad, paranoiac insane asylum to run the world.

4. Burn it up-wear it out

Its one of those things that sort of spring into the lexicon of their own volition- I've no idea where it originated, so help yourself.
