SocraticGadfly: George Mitchell as Middle East envoy?

George Mitchell as Middle East envoy?

What will he do there, if Obama taps him on the shoulder? Check Moqtada al-Sadr for steroids? Try to arrange a national title playoff between Hezbullah and Hamas?

More seriously, as has been shown by BushCo attempts to propagandize the Arab world, Mitchell’s Lebanese heritage, via his mother, won’t be worth any bonus points.
