But some names come to mind, as being glaringly absent from this alleged event.

I should NOT even post initials.......GB, BO, SH. Megan K. I won't go there!

to the injured for a speedy recovery and safe passage out of Egypt.

4. I hope every reporter at FOX is told about PigBoy Limbaugh's comments yesterday

HE offered that he is OK with journalists being rounded up and the like. In short, he is glad these people got there ass kicked.

8. London? That's the closest bureau to Egypt they have?

Sorry, it's just a thing I have about US media's inability to report on what's happening outside their own borders.
