OK, you want to move on? Then let’s talk about what happened to the missiles? If they weren’t competent to secure the consulate, and allowed four people to be murdered, why should we think that they managed to secure heat-seeking missiles?

Cyber Monday

I know that it’s Wednesday, but Amazon is extending the deals all week, including lightning deals that change every hour. Also, check out the Christmas (not “holiday”) Corner.

I appreciate the purchases that folks have made through the site so far this month, particularly the iPod Touch and Kindle. Also, I notice that someone bought Jake Tapper’s must-read new book on Afghanistan. I hope that more do. Here’s an interview with him about it over at National Review Online.

The Phrase The Media Won’t Use

Hamas is engaging in war crimes (as have the “Palestinians,” for decades).

Disgusting.
