    Its like you read my mind! You seem to know so much about this, like you wrote the book in it or something. I think that you can do with some pics to drive the mgassee home a bit, but instead of that, this is wonderful blog. A fantastic read. I will certainly be back.

    Lindsey Graham's comment likening CNN to a branch of Al-Qaeda is outrageous on its face and completely unbecoming for a US Senator. Unfortunately, Wolf Blitzer let the remark stand unchallenged. That sort of inflammatory and insulting language has no place in the public discourse.

    Lindsey Graham's comment likening CNN to a branch of Al-Qaeda is outrageous on its face and incredibly unbecoming of a US Senator. Unfortunate that Wolf Blitzer let the remark go unchallenged – this kind of inflammatory rhetoric has no place in the public discourse.

    The US Arab allies are already arming the terrorists. Haven't you seen the machine guns and RPGs they have.
