Didn't David Frum leave a few months ago?

Which Bush?

I'd say Matalin is controversial.

Matthew Scully---now an "animal rights advocate."

...chief speechwriter Michael Gerson, a Christian fundamentalist...

Who will it be?

Just a guess but I suspect it's mostly about trying to drum up an audience for tonights show.... Happens on most Sunday nights.

It's about Drudge trying to get somebody, anybody, to tune in to his boring radio show.

Is this the "awful scandal" where a wife did some bragging about husband's speechwriting? Why would this even be a story...every president has speechwriters.

Frum has always been more of a nest-feathering opportunist than other White House staffers are, or feel the need to be. He's always been a pretty loathsome character. After a major Bush address, Frum's wife sent out e-mails saying that "axis of evil" was David's creation. This is a major no-no for speech writers who ought to cultivate anonymity, rather than notoriety. Lately, it's been said that "axis of evil" has plenty of problems, since the White House's different approaches to dealing with Iran, Iraq and North Korea suggests that they aren't all one united force.

"He was tart, not sweet," charges Frum.
Piquant.

I wonder if this particular speech writer was the lurker that quoted a few Freepers? May explain why Freepers haven't been quoted in a while.
