Funny, if you watched CNN or MSNBC today, you'd think absolutely nothing was happening. Both, I believe, spent more than an hour with a boat rescue off the Oregon coast and when they returned from that, we saw stuff on fashion and movies and racehorses.

But go to CNN's home page, and you see that street fighting is going nuts in Najaf, that in a perhaps knee-jerk reaction, hundreds of prisoners have been set free from Abu Ghraib (which only begs the question of why they were detained in the first place), Israeli soldiers sifting through sand to find remains of colleagues (and lots of Palestinians dead in various response attacks), and concerns about what the upset in the India election means.

I'm mystified, to say the least.
