Sen. Warner, Kennedy, et.al., are grasping onto this, even though they probably knew about it while they are saying they don't. Anything to discredit this administration, which in turn discredits this country's effort to civilize and democratize the world.

Of course.
It is how the Bush administration handles this which will make the difference in whether or not they win.

That isn't good enough anymore --- we're a very touchy-feely people now, we all want to wring our hands over these couple poor-judgement incidents.
