Stories. They can shed a light on the news, even the news to come, like nothing else.

One story can be worth a thousand pictures, graphs, statistics, analyses, at least if Theodore Dalrymple, the best social critic writing today, tells it. In part because he knows how to tell the one story that sums up a whole social trend, tragedy or crisis to come.

I think Paris is only smoldering, they put out the fires. Mind you, I haven't seen todays count of car burnings.

Plus, the Imam's, being the saviors they hoped to portray themselves as (after preaching in mosks to riot in the first place) were out in full force issuing a "fatwa" to these 30 year old "youths" (who LMSM insist were not muslims, just poor deprived immigrants)to stop the rioting.

Why would non-muslim "Youths"(who shout Allah snak-bar each time they torch a car) listen to bearded diaper-heads if they are not muslim terrorists, but just disgruntled youths?

I heard that Reid demanded the firing of the new FEMA director due to his dismal response to the crisis in Paris.

Where are the human shields?

Will there be another Rachel Corrie?

Will France stop oppressing these poor unfortunates and give them the countryside?

The left is so obviously pathetic in their bias towards Chirac.
Had Bush waited 11 days to come out of hiding and make a public announcemnt of how he plans to surrender to the enemy, the media woud have ate him alive, and rightly so.
Instead, they give Chirac a pass, dpwnplay what is really going on in France, Germany, Denmark.

I'm really starting to believe that the LMSM is owned by the Mulla Mafia, and the Democrats are in bed with them (the Mulla mafia) as well.
There isn't any other rational explanation as to why LMSM will not tell the truth, and Democrats support terrorists.
