LBN thread here on DU.

Yeah, it kind of bombed, because it's a crappy SURPRISE! to begin with, and the hundreds of thousands of pounds of missing explosives that are now killing our troops is kind of a bigger story.

4. Wait until you hear THIS
The "big" news is that Kerry said he had spoken to ALL of the foreign ministers in NATO (or Europe or something) and it turns out he missed a few.

It's "You forgot Poland" redux

I think it's gonna blow those 350 tons of missing explosives off the front page!!!

6. supposedly some un security council story
I think there's a small blurb about it on page Z-99, next to the personal ads about a "manly republicans seeking Caribbean showers and falafel"

wait a minute....

7. Don't you see?
The explosives story should have broken DAYS ago, but the librul media held onto it to overrun the Big Surprise(TM)! And the 'Rats wheeled out Clintoon on a stretcher to distract the media, too, and the media totally fell for it!

9. Drudge has his flashing light siren thing going off
I'm not sure what he is referring to, but it's about a cache of explosives and a story on NBC.
