Who's not happy to some of the old kooks go, like Santorum?  But I 
wonder, which candidate ran under the only promise that could ever 
possibly stop this war, that of reining in Israel?  So I wouldn't expect 
anything great, and if anything, I'd expect their old childishness and 
vindictiveness to get the better of them, now that they have just enough 
ammo to shoot themselves in the foot again.

You can be happy that terrorists will be able to receive their phone 
calls from abroad in private, I guess.
