Just watch. The MSM and the Democrats have to spin this because their quest for power is more important to them that what is right. Once the news slows down they will both be spinning it.

Before they speak, the Rats would do well to revisit the inspring words of Thomas Payne, widely credited for shoring up public support for our Revolutionary Army at it's darkest hour:
"These are the times that try men's souls. The summer soldier and the sunshine patriot will, in this crisis, shrink from the service of their country; but he that stands it now, deserves the love and thanks of man and woman. Tyranny, like hell, is not easily conquered; yet we have this consolation with us, that the harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph. What we obtain too cheap, we esteem too lightly: it is dearness only that gives every thing its value. Heaven knows how to put a proper price upon its goods; and it would be strange indeed if so celestial an article as freedom should not be highly rated."
~~December 23, 1776~~
I am always amazed at how so many writings by mere "colonists" have held up so well over the centuries.
