Funny That

That one news agency that so many conservatives wanted to have bombed out of existence (including George Bush) when they were in Iraq and Afghanistan...and sort of got their wish...has become indispensable to pretty much the Western World over the last few days in Egypt.

So, naturally, the Egyptian Government is moving to shut Al Jazeera down.

It's what John Bolton would do.
