There’s the Middle East. There’s Singapore.

On Monday The NewsHour With Jim Lehrer aired an interview with U.S. Vice President Dick Cheney.  He was describing al-Qaida as a global menace and explained that the U.S. and its allies had just broken up a cell in Singapore.  “Singapore,” he said.  “Singapore.  That’s around the other side of the world from the Middle East.”

Yo, Dick?

Singapore ain't that far from the Middle East.
