Just a few days ago, Democrats on Capitol Hill seemed quite eager to make political hay out of news reports suggesting that President Bush might have known in advance about the September 11 attacks. Prominent Democrats like Sens. Tom Daschle, Hillary Rodham Clinton and House Minority Leader Dick Gephardt have loudly demanded investigations into what the administration knew about the possibility that terrorists were preparing to attack the United States.

The Democrats slowed down because they saw the poll numbers :

Poll: Public doesn’t support 9/11 inquiry

Perhaps this is the new Democratic campaign:

Lawmakers question Afghan plan

May 21 — Influential lawmakers have begun challenging the Bush administration’s handling of post-Taliban Afghanistan, fearing that the administration’s reliance on regional military chiefs is undermining security and hindering the establishment of democratic institutions.

I think the DemocRATS don't like this poll at all.

Do you know what I think triggered the Democrats and the Media into this hissy fit? If go back to the anatomy of this "scandal"--one bit of truth becomes quite clear.

The GOP released a photo of Bush doing his Job!

Cynthia McKinney has taken money from Alamoudi, recorded on 9-11-01 no less. Whay hasn't there been a stink about that? And why hasn't Ms. McKinney been pressured to return the money? Inquiring minds want to know....

And I just had a thought. Seems to me the last time I was over at www.fec.gov, it didn't look like Alamoudi's group was doing much in the donation department. Wonder if they've started up a new committee under a different name and/or are finding a different way to get money to people like McKinney? Might bear looking into. Just went over to fec.gov but the site was slower than molasses in January so I'll check back there later.

Demonrats are immune from scrutiny, no matter how heinous their activities.
