Democrats on the Senate Judiciary Committee have worked in close concert with outside special-interest groups to defeat President Bush's judicial nominees, according to internal Democratic staff memos.

In one memo to Sen. Richard J. Durbin of Illinois obtained by The Washington Times, Washington lawyer Miguel A. Estrada is singled out as "especially dangerous" because "he is Latino." Mr. Estrada, born in Honduras, withdrew his nomination to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit in September after being filibustered for eight months.

I agree, but I don't think we need worry. There are more details to come, more corroboration, more documents will come to light, more former Iraqi government officials will spill their guts, etc. There is no putting this thing back in the bottle. Just hit every idiot liberal over the head with this when they mechanically repeat that mindless droning mantra "There is no proof of a link between Saddam and Al Qaida, blah, blahblah, blah blah..."

These idiots swallowed this lie, and now may they choke on it. This memo outlines a massive fund of evidence that Saddam not only worked hand-in-glove with Osama Bin Ladin since 1990, but funded Mohammed Atta during the preparations for 9/11. There is no stronger justification for the Iraqi war imaginable, than direct evidence of Saddam's complicity and involvment in the World Trade Center atrocities.

The leftist contrived WMD gambit is over. Clear and massive evidence that Saddam was actively deceiving the idiot Blix, and hiding his WMD development programs was laid out for all to see by the preliminary Kay report. The final report will be even more enlightening. The stockpiles are somewhere... Syria maybe. It is not surprising that they are still hidden. As long as they stay buried, fine. But this attempt by the corrupt and treasonous Democrat liars to attempt to bring down George Bush with the WMD scam is over. They have been proven to be wrong. and if they continue to lie, they can do it out of office, as they are too corrupt to possibly remain in the government.

The leftist contrived WMD gambit is over...

I don't know, although I would like to think so. Remember what we all learned in Science 101? For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.

Well, the same seems to hold true in Politics 101. For every released memo, there is an equal and opposite memo.

Case in point:
Case Closed
From the November 24, 2003 issue: The U.S. government's secret memo detailing cooperation between Saddam Hussein and Osama bin Laden.
by Stephen F. Hayes
11/24/2003, Volume 009, Issue 11 Weekly Standard

And Today's Washinton Post article:
CIA Finds No Evidence Hussein Sought to Arm Terrorists

Now, the first article was covered by FOX News. Dollars to donuts, the second article will be covered ad nauseaum by CNNPMSNBCABCNBCCBS.

Sadly, not many in this country will read both articles and form their own opinion.

When we first went into Afgahnistan (spelled wrong, I know) my perfect ending had a three dirty, dusty soldiers walking out of a dust cloud (in the best Bruce Willis style) clutching the beard of Osama's dangling, decaptiated head. In the background we hear the collective bands of our Armed Forces playing the most American, Patriotic music imaginable.

In order to convince many Americans we need to change the scene. Add Saddam's head and they must be walking out of whatever bunker in Iraq Saddam is holed up in.

The media has done it's best to convince American's we are a total failure in Iraq. How many of the usual suspects carried Arnot's report especially the sound bite:
What do you think of Al-Jazeera?"
[Unidentified Iraqi man starts speaking in Arabic]
Arnot: "In English. In English."
As a matter of fact, I just heard a sound bite of dasshole explaining how we need to "win the minds & hearts of the Iraqi people." DUH!!!!! Whoops? Did he forget to mention we have been very successful at that?

Deeply saddened on that one he is not, he knows his media allies do their best to keep it suppressed.

There's been this rash of stolen Democratic memos by Republicans recently

Well, there they go again..blaming the victim and praising the perp. If these damning memos were from the GOP instead of the sewer Rats, imagine the outrage and continuous coverage in LAT, WP and NYT plus the alphabet news channels.

When we have fresh new Pubbies who aren't on Hil's FBI file list, hopefully they will stand up and ACT. Meanwhile, God bless the internet for spreading the truth about these dangerous Rats.

Oh......and thanks for the ping!

The Washington Post story is just more of the same tired canards we have been hearing for months, repackaged and fluffed up. The quotes from the Kay report DO NOT support the democrat effort to obfuscate, despite what that article says. The Fox Intelligence commitee report is full of new information. Either they ignore the new memo, or they try and refute it, either is a losing proposition, as time and facts are no longer on their side. More than this memo in regards to evidence linking Al Qaida and Saddam will be coming out, as the release of this memo will stimulate investigation, and research into past press articles that also support a link. The Democrats have to somehow prove a negative, which is impossible, and it is too late anyway. Ignorance is their only ally in this, and with this new information, we can do plenty to eliminate that ally!

Thanks for posting this. Simply disgraceful show of racial prejudice on the part of the Democrats. This is serious business.
