hung up his pith helmet and skeedaddled to Washington DC to appear on Meet the Press the notorious abode of reputed journalist Phat Tim Russert.
Apparently, from the little I caught of it, Tom was unsucessful in convincing the Supreme Opthamalocrat of Syria to invest in free WiFi for Damascus and its suburbs...nor could he get in to see the President of Iran to discuss the potential of hybrid cars.
But on Friedman babbled, I didn't hear his standard "We'll know in six months" meme, but no doubt it cropped up somewhere in his monologue.
Frankly I zoned out, Tom Friedman has a swaety breathless look about him these days, like he knows something went wrong, but can't quite figure what that something is.
Russert on the other hand, just peered at Friedman like a cobra on anti-depressants...of its one skill Tim has mastered it is the art of looking at guests intently.
