Disturbing

1) Hamas has overthrown the Palestinian government and taken over the West Bank.
At this point, maybe Israel should build a full wall around Gaza, cut all all remaining ties to that territory, grant all Palestinians living in the West Bank full Israeli citizenship, tie its infrastructure (water, electricity, etc.) into the rest of the country, and move forward.

2) Congressional hearings into the Department of Justice
Is anyone paying attention to this? There's been a ton of illegal partisan activity uncovered. But no one seems to be culpable. DOJ officials are lying under oath, then "revising" their testimony ex post facto. They're pointing fingers at each other, and playing "he said, she said." Congress is too ineffective to determine who is responsible, and to wimpy to start jailing people in contempt. It's pathetic how toothless the Democrats are being.

Are you kidding? People aren't paying attention to all that. Paris Hilton is far more important.

The news about Hamas is really, really disturbing. As for the DOJ issues, I'm at least happy that subpoenas are flying. Not that it will make that much of a difference in the end if people "comply" with the subpoenas by showing up and lying. If the Dems can't take the elections next time around given all of this, there really is no hope, I think, that they ever will.
