The Dems are freaking , desperate, morons. Unfortunately for us, they have a lot of backing from antiAmerican types overseas. Their underhanded foreign contributions might grow this year because the French are no doubt miffed. On the otherhand, maybe they won't have much money to give without all that cheap oil they've been slipping out of Iraq, or all the weapons sales with Iraq...
A little history from another site:

(Hey, it worked once, why not try it again? With all of its front companies and agents, what maes anyone think Iraq was just looking to buy harmless French wine and tubing for Olympic grade bicycles? Does anyone seriously buy the story that international overisght, as the oft sourced Williams said, was good enough to be sure that Niger couldn't possibly have exported uranium to Iraq (or anywhere else Iraq requested?)
Great post. Every news org EXCEPT Fox is not reporting that the BRITS are standing by their claim, despite the forged papers. They had other sources.
