DEMOCRATS DOCUMENT PLAN TO SABOTAGE SENATE INVESTIGATION OF PRE-WAR INTELLIGENCE FOR POLITICAL ADVANTAGE
This is a leak that's going to hurt the ongoing meme campaign by Democrats to spin the overthrow of Saddam's regime in Iraq into a defeat for the United States.
The damning nature of the memo is obvious from the fact that the ranking committee member, Senator Jay Rockefeller, felt compelled to acknowledge the memo's autheticity even as he tried to palm it off as an unauthorized exercise of a junior staffer ( a fairlly ludicrous assertion since junior aides do not map out high political strategy for the Senate Democratic caucus). I'll give Rockefeller one thing though - whomever put this to paper was a damn fool. The late Chicago columnist Mike Royko used to observe the old rule among alderman - " Don't write down what you can say, don't speak when you can nod, don't nod when you can wink "
Hmmm.... lying lies and the liars who tell them ? ¶ 6:37 AM
