Looters stole 6,000+ artifacts from Iraq's National Museum of Antiquities
Will Andrew Sullivan* and other bush mouthpieces retract their comments?
The Washington comPost reports: "U.S. and Iraqi officials have confirmed the theft of at least 6,000 artifacts from Iraq's National Museum of Antiquities during a prolonged looting spree as U.S. forces entered Baghdad two months ago, a leading archaeologist said yesterday... The June 13 total was double the number of stolen items reported by Customs a week earlier, and the final tally could be 'far, far worse.' Customs could not immediately obtain an updated report, a spokesman said... It now appears, however, that although the losses were not nearly as grave as early reports indicated, they go far beyond the 33 items known to have been taken from the museum's display halls." - via democrats.com.

Fox pundit lashes out at petulant propagandist Brit Hume
Fux News Channel anchor/Rove boytoy Brit Hume, who had a complete and utter hissy when Rand Beers* resigned from the National Security Council, accused him on air of having falsely testified under oath about Colombian terrorists training at al Qaeda's Afghan camps.
That's when former Faux analyst Larry Johnson laid into Hume, calling him "reprehensible," and telling him "you are starting to sound like Bill Clinton trying to define 'sex'."
