Good for you.

You read the Vanity Fair article on the lovely pair?

If he doesnt' quit, George W. Bush will fire George Tenet on November 3rd, the day after his landslide re-election.

He's been disloyal, and the Bushes don't brook disloyalty.

We are so lucky to have John Ashcroft as our Attorney General. He behaves with class and dignity all the while the left is blasting him for the very air he breathes.

Outing a CIA agent is just dumb. Seems to me that the political mechanisms in Washington always put a premium on go along, get along, or you'll get yours—regardless of party affiliations. Appointment of a special council is the best thing that could have happened for Bush's reelection campaign. There is no place for political retribution within the diplomatic and security spheres. Let the chips fall where they may and if someone's political motives were placed ahead of the national interest, cut'em loose. Better to take the medicine and put it behind us.

The Washington Post headlined it as : "Ashcroft Recused ",which is a fairly blatant way of suggesting Ashcroft was somehow compelled to step aside.

One should not be too surprised, I suppose, at an intensely partisan newspaper trying to turn an ethically correct move into something sinister.

It is also amazing to see Wilson on TV,claiming his wife had a "covert" job. She didn't. She was an Analyst,who worked at a desk alongside hundreds of others with similar low-to-medium-level employees.

I think the article left something out:

“At the end of the day it's of keen interest to me to see whether or not we can get Karl Rove frog-marched out of the White House in handcuffs.” - Former ambassador Joseph C. Wilson IV

The Washington Post cites an unnamed source who says, "The CIA is angry about the circulation of a still-classified document to conservative news outlets."

Or, as another might say, "There are still many Clinton people infecting our agencies."

"Patrick J. Fitzgerald, the U.S. Attorney in Chicago"

BINGO! This guy's nickname is "Elliot Ness". I wonder if the dems now think they would have been better off with Ashcroft ..?? ROTFLOL! Talk about sticking your foot in your mouth .. Daschle and Levin wrote letters to Ashcroft and TOLD him to recuse himself.
