Is the New Republic/Scott Thomas Beauchamp caper more like the Dan Rather/Mary Mapes/Texas Air National Guard caper or the Joe Wilson/Valerie Plame gambit?  You decide.  Either way, Winter Soldier II is heinously despicable.

Is Pervez Musharraf ever going to make up his mind which side of the war he’s on?

The NSA Terrorist Surveillance Program is at best a third as effective as it was before the New York Times publicized it in late 2005 and the 2006 election forced the Bush Administration to subject it to FISA pre-approvals.  And despite three-quarters of remaining Gitmo prisoners being classified as “demonstrated threats” to the national security of the United States, and nearly all of them “potential threats,” the Democrats are still bound and determined to empty Camp X-Ray into the civilian criminal justice system, where they would either be released or whatever remaining unleaked classified intelligence on al Qaeda would be publicly spilled.  Yet the Dems believe that pushing these positions will benefit them politically, and it appears that perception is justified.  What’s wrong with this picture?

Two and a half years ago ex-state attorney general Christine Gregoire and Washington Donks stole the 2004 gubernatorial election.  Only now is anybody (ACORN) paying the slightest price for this electoral usurpation, and it isn’t much.  What’s wrong with THIS picture?

And Chucky Schumer personifies the Chavez-ation of the Democrat Party, and America along with it.
