Oh yeah, I almost forgot!

Your recommendation itself is extremely sound. The only reason that Bush and Cheney are undergoing any kind of negative press right now is because it's July and there's nothing else to write about and the press tends to be resolutely partisan in its political affiliation.

Partisan Democrat, that is.

What vainglorious mountebanks such as John Leboutlierre fail to understand is that the press is a willing instrument of agitation and propaganda for the Democratic Party! He treats negative press stories as if they are legitimate, when they should be understood for what they are: the latest in focus group action at the DNC.

The Democrats aren't interested in Harken energy or Halliburton per se. That's not what motivates them. They want to get minutes out so they can administer the "death of a thousand cuts" during the fall campaign, as their minions in the bitch press "cast doubt" on every move Bush made at Harken.

And Good Christ, Cheney didn't sell his stock until the Times and the Post got on his ass to do so back in 2000! For God's sake, the mendacity of these people is nothing short of amazing.

LeBoutlierre himself hates Bush and the Bush family with a passion. He is the source of more bullcrap about Bush on the right than even those souls of caution over at LewRockwell.com. He ran for Congress from Massachussetts in 1980 , winning a seat in the Reagan landslide. He couldn't hold onto it to save his life, and was wasted by Tip O'Neill's political machine.

He is, altogether, a writer who leaves something to be desired.

Be Seeing You,

Chris

Chris:

Haven't seen you posting before. We sure think a lot alike. And, you write really well ("inner brownshirt" indeed, LOL). I'll be looking forward to reading more.

That said, I'm not ready to concede the Senate or the House in 2002. We have a good chance of controlling both narrowly. In that regard, watch for the TAKEBACKCONGRESS.ORG project PhiKapMom and I are working on. Coming your way soon :)

But hiding and stonewalling almost always fail. It is always better to release everything and move on.

Was this guy living in a cave in the Clinton years?

He makes good points. If the guys don't have anything to hide, they should defuse the situation post haste, and make it a complete and total non-issue for the Democrats.

If we had an objective press, you'd be right. But we don't and the press can take any information at all and make it look bad by for conservatives lying propaganda. The sheeple are too lazy to figure it out for themselves. Best not to release anything unless it's pertinent to the presidency or government. This isn't.

Let me try again:

If we had an objective press, you'd be right. But we don't and the press can take any information at all and make it look bad for conservatives by using lying propaganda. The sheeple are too lazy to figure it out for themselves. Best not to release anything unless it's pertinent to the presidency or government. This isn't.
