First we have a Democrat admitting that the anti war campaign premise that 'swept' Dems to power is '06 was a fraud, a lie, a blatant deception.
Now the news has become Anti-Hillary, Anti-Clinton in full voice, though it was was always there, a pimple on the Clinton Legacy.
Well, now the pimple's become a boil, and all the Liberal weenies are lining up to squeeze it, flinging the oozing pus about as if they just figured out what defective humans the Clintons are.
Didn't we tell them, over and over, ad naseum, years ago?
Cheers!
PS If the '08 campaign was to be Rudy v. Sir Hillary at the start, can anyone really say what it will be in Nov?

Lies, Damned Lies, And Poiticians
If you cruise over to Hot Air, you can see the Fox News clip of Chris Wallace grilling and flambe-ing Howeird Dean. Hot Air says Fox won the debate, but I don't think so. Repeat something nine times and it becomes a fact to the listener. How many times did Howeird repeat the DNC's lies?
On a lighter note, in case you missed it, here's the photo essay of the May Day march and DNC rally in LA:

Carrier v. BB Rules Of The Road
Reminds me of an incident we had while I was on the USS New Jersey.
We were conducting ops in the SoCal OpArea when we suffered a steering and engineering casualty. The battleship when under full steam (eight burning and four turning) is quite manuverable and quick (over 40 kts at flank), but down to one boiler, one screw, and one rudder, we are worse than a garbage scow.
We sent out the mandatory NOTEMs saying that we were limited to bare steerageway when one of the carriers out there with us, came up to flank, turned into the wind, CBDR - Constant Bearing, Decreasing Range (collision course) - with us and told us to get out of their way, they were going to flight ops and we were the burdened vessel.
Our CIC sent them a msg to check the NOTEM, to which they reminded us of the Rules of the Road governing carriers lauching or recovering air craft.
Ahem.
The Jersey's OOD got on the bridge to bridge radio with the carrier's OOD. "Kitty Hawk, this is New Jersey, you are CBDR with a 68,000 ton class A armored battleship. We are unable to comply, so unless you want the bow of your carrier to be shoved into your bridge, I suggest you change course - IMMEDIATELY!"
