Democrats stoop to a new political low

Even revealing intelligence is part of their plan. No wonder those in the know feel this "dirty trick" is so close to treason.

There's nothing the Left won't do if they think they can get away with it...

The Republicans "caved in" (as usual)

..and as long as the Republicans continue their policy of appeasement, the Left will.

Former Senator Robert Kerry (D-Neb.)

Is this supposed to be Kerrey, real Irishman, real war hero?

[mtbopfuyn]

Rockerfeller won't name names. Kerry won't name names. And the R's just sit there.

Don't these people realize this is not jr. high anymore?

It centered on duping the panel's Republican chairman . . . into approving probes that, in actuality, would just be fishing expeditions . . . to dig up and hype "improper or questionable conduct by administration officials."

The committee would then release information during the course of the "investigation," with Democrats providing their "additional views" that would, among other things, castigate the Republicans for seeking to limit the scope of the inquiry. They would "manufacture and denounce" a cover-up where none existed.

WHY DID THE DEMS NEED A MEMO TO REMIND THEM OF A GAME PLAN THAT THEY HAVE BEEN USING FOR YEARS - TO EDUCATE NEWBIES?

Sickening! And the worse part is that Pubbies fell for it.

No question mark after this Kerrey.
May disagree with his party affiliation, but he is the real deal.

In the predawn hours, Kerrey led his team up a 350-foot cliff, splitting them into two groups for a coordinated attack on the Viet Cong camp. Instead of surprising the enemy, the SEALs were ambushed. Kerrey's leg was shattered by a grenade that threw him backwards. His Medal of Honor citation records what happened next: "Although bleeding profusely and suffering great pain, [Kerrey] displayed outstanding courage and presence of mind in immediately directing his element's fire into the enemy camp." Kerrey was barely conscious, but managed to maintain "calm, superlative" control as he directed the evacuation of all his men.

Kerrey spent the next eight months in a Philadelphia hospital bed, recovering from his injuries. He lost his right leg below the knee -- a fact known to few of his constituents who may have seen Sen. Robert Kerrey, D-Neb., complete marathons -- and endured more than a dozen operations. Fellow patients who became friends remember his stoicism in the face of surgery and rehabilitation, but Kerrey himself recalls a "weakened and bitter" young man.

Why are we so tough on foreign terrorists and so easy on the domestic terrorists known as DemocRATS?

[MamaLucci]

George Tenet, a Democrat and CIA chief.

That explains a lot.

[gcruse]

Domestic terrorists vote.

Good article.
Bump for bumping Mellon.
We need televised hearings, and I suspect Mr. Miranda will provide many many details on Mellon's activities - including what did he and Tenet know, and when did they plan it.

It's called "framing the issue" and "speaking in one voice", so yes, it is to educate newbies on not to wander off point.

[gcruse]

Powerful stuff.

BUMP!

The issue: exploitation of intelligence matters for partisan purposes, and thereby jeopardizing national security

One voice: one code of misconduct

Now that's worth committing to paper. :)
