I heard the John & Ken show yesterday afternoon on KFI, and I was rather blown away by the conversation with the little old lady from Florida who was trying to get back home from Lebanon. What blew me away was how consistent her story was with everything Conservatives have been saying about the nature of the conflict now escalating between Hezbollah and the IDF. I was secondarily miffed about the clear lack of responsiveness that this evidently smart and resourceful woman recieved from the State Department in trying to get out.
So when Doc emailed me a note saying that Pelosi of all people had proposed something or other to help Americans flee the country, I scratched my head for a minute and then figured, well maybe she has one decent bone in her body after all. This morning it is all clear. The BDS meme is that the Administration will be incompetent to evacuate Beirut just like.... KATRINA.
I thought I was cynical.
So here's the pre-emptive. The dastardly Bush Administration will provoke Hezbollah freedom fighters into killing Americans in order to justify support of the evil Zionists and their Halliburton-fueled interests in the region.
Seriously, I'm very interested to hear what Condi will say, and I'm glad she was on the ball to insure that Americans get a free ride home, because yeah they were slacking yesterday. The French and the Germans had already hightailed it out of there. I have no gripes against Americans who go to Lebanon or any other danger zone. More power to them, I say.
