A better thing to watch in the very short term is the annoiuncement of the election results in Egypt. The CNN on-the-ground guy reporting from Tahrir Square says that if the interim military government announces that the former Mubarak loyalist and army backer is announced as the winner over the Muslim Brotherhood candidate, there would be major riots across the country.

The entire middle east thing is explosive at best....there are ways that all of this can work out well, and lots of ways it can be sooooooo very destructive.
I was curious about the comment on Iraq, etc because that would really be a nasty reply to Obama for sure, but perhaps your guy in the know at CNN paraphrased for his purpose as they tend to do at times on all networks.
But the mideast is where folks should be looking now...not at the circus over here !
