Saving for later.

Their only exit strategy is to stop talking about it. Cheney won! Again!

Yep; it’s a quagmire. That’s what happens when you have no plan to “win the peace”. (Right, Harry?) The Democrats might want to employ a “surge” strategy, but it’s too late: the War Against the War on Terror is already lost.

Executive summary: Cheney took ‘em out hunting and told them they can do similar to what he told Sen Patrick Leahy to do.

I wonder what Pelosi is going to say publicly about this. And Cheney. And O’Reilly, etc. etc.

From the comments to the article....some good advice:

******************************EXCERPT***********************************

Saul Alinsky Rule 12:

RULE 12: Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it, and polarize it.” Cut off the support network and isolate the target from sympathy. Go after people and not institutions; people hurt faster than institutions.

Focus like a lazer beam on Nancy Pelosi (D).

I think that's what Hoyer is trying to do now. By having hearings on Pelosi et.al. wrt "what they knew and when they knew it" he's inoculating them against further inquiry. He'll setup a kangaroo court, ask a few softball questions ("Mizz Pelosi: you didn't do anything wrong, did you? Thought not--this committee finds no wrong-doing and is dismissed!") and then charge full steam ahead to the Trvth Commission to bring down Bush & Co. ("I object to this line of questioning! Mizz Pelosi has already been subjected to questioning by her peers about her involvement and has been found to have acted in a responsible and proper manner...").

You know, the wicked bitch of the West is having difficulty in remembered when, or even if, she was briefed about waterboarding. My suggestion for a means of improving her memory is to ... waterboard her over and over again. That pig, Murtha, too.

More likely Hoyer and Harman...wouldn't object.

Obama is above the Fray...he only voted present....

Thanks for the ping. I think there is a legitimate amnesia problem on the Left. Having chanted "Bush lied" so often they actually have come to believe that the whole thing started with him. That's a real problem when you're a Dem congresscritter with a raft of statements and votes on record even before Dubya ever showed up.

Bambi gets a pass because he was still stuffing ballot boxes in Chicago when most of it went down. The rest of the crew apparently think that applies to them as well. Sorry, folks. Regime change in Iraq was voted in as official policy in '98 and it has Democrat fingerprints all over it.

They were counting on trying this in the media on only that select evidence that the Dems wanted to be permitted. That seems a lot less likely now. Their exit strategy is a simple course reversal and retreat under the cover of a heavy media smoke screen. Watch it happen.

This seems to be getting better by the hour now instead of by the day. :-)

Thanks for the ping.
