#1 Words fail. Even as instinctive and tough a leader as Dubya couldn't call off the farce that is/has been MidEast "peace" negotiations - and that's despite his notable high-point back when he told the Paleostinians to eff off unless/until they were finally serious.

If we're wasting effort on this preposterous charade, why not revive the ABM Treaty, ratify and comply with Kyoto, and sign the land-mine treaty while we're at it? Oh to be able to say that at an NSC meeting ....

Hope Condi's advance folks have made sure the Egyptian "press" won't be running any incredibly crude racist caricatures of her during her visit. Not that, if it did, (1) any media would ask about it, or (2) the US would raise the slightest objection (3) the professional race-baiters in the US (black caucus, NAACP, most of the Dem party, assorted cretinous actors and academics) would profess their outrage.

#3 So far, Bush resisted the temptation to pay for Arab "assistance" with the blood of Israel---the way his dada did in 1991. Lets see how long it lasts.
