That Syria?

The state sponsor of terrorism? The torturer? The supposed resting place of Saddam's WMD? The country some posited was next on the invasion list? That Syria is going to "help bring stability" to Iraq? We're playing international footsie with those bastards? (Referring to the government; I have no rancor for everyday Syrians.)

And it only gets a blurb box on the front page of the Washington Post? While polygamists, fucking OJ and bible-reading grunts take up space. (Not that I'm begrudging the grunts anything, but c'mon, it's a feature photo unrelated to any of the stories. Unrelated art is by definition unnecessary.) I know the State Department is being run by Aunt Tom and that we've apparently become unable to control the Vichy Iraqi Government. But Syria? That Syria?
