And what is Sharon's condition??

I'm just curious, as I haven't heard much news on this today.

4. Fear might drive them to tap Netanyahu again.

That sickens me - it was Netanyahu who fostered the neocon movement in this country.

9. Aren't he and Rush Limbaugh good buddies?

He's been a guest on Rush's show before and they are so into each other, you almost expect them to get married.

5. in the interim, it will be Olmert

as for the elections in a couple of months, that will be the big Q.

6. Last I read on BBC is they're keeping him comatose for 72 hours

So far he survived the surgery to stop the bleeding, and they are keeping him in an induced coma for 72 hrs to give the brain swelling a chance to go down without him getting all riled up, moving around and maybe injuring himself more. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/middle_east/4585562.stm

So, he's not dead yet, officially.

10. Pat Robertson's Comment On Sharon

Wolf Blitzer on CNN reported that Pat Robertson said that what happened to Sharon was divine retribution for his giving up land to the Palestinians. Pitiful.
