Crisis in crisis

One of the many responsibilities of a certified and licensed blogger that I continually shirk is watching the cable news shows. Yesterday, however, I was in an office with a television set turned to CNN. All morning long we were treated to images from Lebanon, Gaza, etc., with the caption running below: "Crisis in the Middle East."

Apparently, we're bored with the ongoing "Crisis in the Fertile Crescent."

Condolences to the Baucus family.
