Tell The Senate Ethics Committee To Investigate Memo-Gate (Senate Intel Com Memo)
As expected, most of the media is blacking out the story on the leaked Democrat memo detailing a Democrat plot to use congressional investigations into Iraq war planning for political gain against President Bush. This cannot stand.
Please use the contact information below to DEMAND an ethics investigation into this memo which recommends that Democrats prepare to launch an investigation when it becomes clear we have exhausted the opportunity to usefully collaborate with the majority. We can pull the trigger on an independent investigation of the administration's use of intelligence at any time but we can only do so once ... the best time would probably be next year.
In a statement, Roberts said that the memo "appears to be a road map for how the Democrats intend to politicize what should be a bipartisan, objective review of prewar intelligence."
Also, please send an email to oreilly@foxnews.com and plea with him to not let the liberal media give the Dems a pass on this one after they skewered Rumsfeld and Novak over similar leaks. This must not stand.

Your reply was so succinct I had to post it again. Very well stated.
Clinton admin intelligence was only a SMALL part of the mix, but it was poured in after only cursery inspection and stirred in with the rest in order to complete the concatenation process and arrive at an answer. This is how it's supposed to be done, but...uh...well...it was an obvious mistake.
Mentioning way back when that the data may be skewed because of the type of people who started making the "sexed-up" charges, and needs to be examined because those people should have had any understanding of the ingredients added to the process, only earns you a tinfoil hat award rather than serious consideration. It's a gut instinct thing. In retrospect, it seems that the people calling for careful reexamination of that data were right.
I'm taking that as tentative, but pray he's able to get back to work full time then. I promised Rush in an email of support and his advertisers in a similar one that I would continue to listen to his show while he was gone. I do my best to keep that promise, when I'm actually in a position to listen to the show. I love those updates by David Limbaugh. I can't wait for Rush to beat this monster and get back on air.
So, the Democrats lied? We're suppose ignore it and to start at the Bush election rather than ask them where they got their info??
Oh, ok. That makes sense. Sorry 'bout that - I'm easily confused.
Yep, that's the plan in a nutshell.
That sucks!
BTW, Newt is asking Rocketfeller to resign. I like Newt.
Sen Hatch says that Rockefeller is a good guy but should be 'criticized' if it's found that he was the source of this memo. These beltway boys sure do know how to play the good-old-boy game... Even when our troops lives are put between them.
I would not call for a senate ethics investigation of this incident (since that would be more of the good-old-boy games). I would think that the justice department should be re-reading title 18 of the US Code to see if any laws were recently broken by one Sen Rockefeller......
