No Softballs From Neil

Cavuto just did an interview with Ashrawi, in which instead of weeping with her about how awful the Israelis were, he actually asked her questions, and challenged her, and didn't let her spin away (though as usual, she spent a lot of time filibustering). After that NPR schmoozefest yesterday, it was quite refreshing. Catch it on the repeat tonight, if you're up that late.

Yeah, I watched that interview as well. My favorite part was when Cavuto called Ashrawi on refusing to call the Haifa bus ombing "terrorism" (which would involve making an ethical judgment); instead, she agreed to call it by its empirical name, "a suicide bombing."

Sorry, but I find that woman truly vile and duplicitous. She kept screaming over Cavuto that she wasn't getting a chance to, uh, scream over Cavuto.

Well, actually "murder-suicide bombing" is more descriptive, and more accurate.

I'm moving into the 'homicide bombing' group myself. But I've read 'suicide bombing' so much that, like changing the year when writing a check in January, I sometimes forget. Oops.
