Timing is everything in life, and a week in which Al Gore, Tom Daschle, and Ted Kennedy howled at the White House - demanding apologies and more "proof" that Saddam Hussein is not a psychopath - ended with news that weapons grade uranium destined for Iraq had been seized by Turkish police.
Then three of the most liberal Democrats in the House were actually in Baghdad telling Americans to trust Saddam, but not the President of the United States of America! What level of treason are we supposed to find acceptable from elected representatives in Congress?
The question is, "Just how stupid does the Democratic Party think the voters are?" Do they really believe people will not make the connection between 9-11 and the need to end the threat to the United States that comes straight out of the Middle East?
The Democratic Party concluded two weeks of borderline criminality with the putrid performance of Sen. Robert Torricelli, followed by yet another effort to steal an election via the justice system, this time by substituting another candidate at the last moment.
The New Jersey Supreme Court, two of whose members gave financial donations to Torricelli, ruled in the Party's favor, putting in jeopardy a fair election for voters everywhere who expect political parties and their candidates to succeed or fail by clearly written election laws.
The pursuit of political power is the legitimate goal of any party, but not to the exclusion of its higher duty to defend the Constitution and all other duly authorized laws, along with security and other national interests. The Democrats' only priority is to maintain their slim one-vote control of the Senate and regain control of the House.
If that means voting against drilling for billion of barrels of oil in Alaska, they will do it.
If that means stalling the Homeland Security legislation, they will do it.
If that means taking no steps to protect our forests, they will do it.
If that means not voting on a federal budget, they will not vote on it.
The Democratic Party is utterly corrupt and utterly debased. The Democratic Party has become the second front in America's war on terrorism.

People, show the Islamic terrorists the most frightening spectacle they could never imagine ... vote in record numbers and throw the socialist postponeNIKS out of office, unifying the nation once again!
