DUBYA AND THE BRIAR PATCH

"Whatever ya do, brother Fox, please don't fling me in that briar patch!" - Brer Rabbit

The sadistic yet incredibly stupid Democrats have just committed one of their most incredible blunders, thanks to Dick Clarke and his book promotion before the 9/11 Special Committee.

Clarke insisted that Condoleeza Rice testify in an open session, knowing full well that this would break tremendous precedent and threaten the future of the confidentiality between a President and his advisors. The Dems went right along, accusing Dr. Rice of trying to hide something, and each and every one of them fell for the trap, and hurled Condi into the briar patch.

The fox is about to get skinned alive - I bet the shirt off my back that neither Clarke nor the Democrats actually expected Rice to be allowed to testified [sic]. They thought they were going to get a free political pass to bash the Bush Administration and blame them for a coverup that never existed.

But now that Condoleeza Rice, PhD in political science and a very articulate and bright woman who may very well be a viable Presidential candidate in 2008, is going to hand the idiots their butts in a sling.

I'm thinking that maybe - just maybe - this wasn't a decision grudgingly made by the President. I have a strong feeling that the President set the snare and the Democrats, blinded by hate, rage, and envy, fell headfirst into the trap. Now they're about to get shocked back into reality when Rice testifies under oath, and digs up the foul-smelling stench of the last Administration.

Clarke and all his liberal minions are going to be exposed for their doublespeak and deception, and September 11, at least the political side of it is going to be put to bed so our country can at last focus once again on the real culprits who still actively seek every American's death.

And until the Democrats learn to make choices on reality instead of being driven by emotion, they'll be caught in the snare each and every time in the future. I don't expect that to happen in the near future; do you?

I have one word for the Dems: Incoming!!!

You don't coach someone who will fight back using truth.
We don't Clintonista-prep.

Will Rush play it live throughout his show in order to make sure everyone hears it?
I gotta see it. I just gotta.

[mabelkitty]

No, it won't.
Clarke is begging Moveon.org not to run an ad with his likeness - why is that? Because this is all partisan and it will hurt his book sales, or because he is lying?

Either way, she should call them out on it, and she will.

[guitfiddlist]

She should start her testimony by issuing a profound apology to the American people...for keeping Richard Clarke on her staff.

Well yeah, GSC, that's the point of the whole exercise.

The libs have been gunning for Condi for some time, now that they see that she could replace Cheney. Naturally, they are afraid of what she could do to their hold on the black vote, as well as other demographic considerations. For instance, the latest leak about her never-delivered September 11th speech is designed to undermine her while buttressing Clarke. In point of fact, it doesn't, and she'll be able to swat that out of the park. However, it points up the game that the Democrats are playing, and must play if Hillary is to have a clear shot in four years.

Rush probably does know something, as I suspect that he is wired into the Bush family far more than he admits.

Be Seeing You,

Chris
