Didn't that say "Not for reproduction without permission of author. Drudge Exclusive"

[ConservativeMan55]

This David Frum guy is clearly cashing in on having close access to the President.
Especially by going on the Today Show, an almost traiterous offence. If not to the country, definately to Bush himself.

We didn't reproduce the report...we just copied it.

Hey, any one remember the Drudge article, "Former White House Aide Turns on Rove?"

Looks like we know who that aid was, if we didn't already.

Already posted here.......

Let me guess, you just got another e-mail?

Why would Bush hire a canuk (sp?)

They hate us...conservatives I mean.

[Grig]

For it to be traiterous, wouldn't he have to be a US citizen first?

The book is clearly favourable to Bush. Perhaps the WH is trying to help promote it this way.

[ConservativeMan55]

LOL....nope...but this post has the full article and that other one was before it was posted....hehe. While I'm at it...Drudge has got some more breaking news...as well.

EXCLUSIVE: STREISAND IN HEATED ARGUMENT OVER 'GLOBAL WARMING'...

[Grig]

Hey, we do have SOME conservatives up here. David Frum is very much a conservative.

[Spunky]

"He's going on the TODAY show to talk about North Korea, Iraq?!"

He needs to bite his tongue.

I doubt that he has insights into North Korea, and Iraq.

[ConservativeMan55]

I don't neccessarily mean traiterous to the country..but specifically the Bush Administration.
They gave him a job...and he's biting the hand that fed him.

"dearth of really high-powered brains,"

If true, this is sad. Reagan benefitted tremendously from having people like Richard Pipes (dean of Russian Studies at Harvard) on the National Security Council, when dealing with the Soviet Union. People who had studied the damn thing and knew how to hit it hard.

The current equivalent would be giving Daniel Pipes or Bernard Lewis a great say in how to deal with the Middle East.

[ConservativeMan55]

He's a Trent Lott type of conservative.
and if he's going on the Today Show to divulge secrets about the White House he's a sellout.

[ConservativeMan55]

It doesn't take a degree to deal with the Middle East.
Just a couple of nukes.

Drudge is just making mischief. I read many months ago that Frum and his wife were on the make, and the WH knew it. Bush has known for a long time that David Frum was highly unlikely to ever adhere to a "no grandstanding" order.

What's really instructive is to consider how paltry the pickings of dissension and scandal are in this WH, to the point where mudrakers are reduced to ginning up as scandalous appearances by former staffers on talking head shows. In comparison, by this time in the Clinton administration, one dead body and several mind blowing scandals had already been delivered to the meat eaters in the press corps.

Frum

[ContentiousObjector]

Frum is a clown who has insubordinated himself out of every job he has ever had,

[ExpandNATO]

If you feel like incinerating the innocent along with the guilty a nuke will do, for the rest of us a more intelligent approach is called for.
