#2 It may be an Overture, but it's only in B-flat!

#5 Remarkably candid and unnuanced for a State Department comment. My guess is that Bashir Assad is trying to figure how to funnel some of Saddam's hidden accounts into the Kerry campaign before it's too late.

#6 Had to go check the text for myself to see if you actually just forgot to highlight a RB comment. But he REALLY did say that!

heh, heh. "Candid" is much too kind. More like flipped him off in diplo-speak.

#8 "What is this Syrian Overture?"

Something similar to the Libyan Line-O-Death Overture, except played in the key of B-2 rather than F-18? Both works end with a final movement that resolves itself into B-Flattened.
