To The Point
Debra J. Saunders could not have put things more in perspective.
Some D.C. Democrats are demanding an investigation — impeachment even — in the wake of last week's New York Times' story about the National Security Agency's warrantless eavesdropping on international calls and e-mails from suspected terror players to Americans. The shriller they get, the more President Bush looks like a strong leader who is willing to stick out his neck and take the heat to protect the American people.
George W. Bush protects our country against terrorism, the Democrats find anything they can at fault with him in that regard: They seem to think that playing with our very lives is no big deal, as long as they have the opportunity to score their cheap, scuzzy little political victories. They can obstruct Bush's Homeland Security endeavors and we can get creamed as a result, no problem, if a few thousand Americans die because of them, they'll just blame it on Bush.
These are U.S. senators and representatives and the Mainstream Media. People we're supposed to trust, point blank: committing treason to further their own political interests.
They seem to think that our lives are just fodder for their politics, nothing more. They are the Democrats.
Debra makes an excellent point, before the fact:
As for the get-Bush crowd, I have a little suggestion: Don't tie the hands of the intelligence community — and then hold hearings about intelligence breakdowns if there is another attack on American soil.
Exactly -- the next 9/11 will be as much the fault of the Democrats as it will consist of blame upon the terrorists, because the Democrats are so intent upon sabotaging the Bush defense efforts for political reasons. Our homeland security, yours and my lives, mean nothing to them, their only agenda is attacking George Bush.
Give the column a read, here.

They'll stage one of their usual dog & pony shows, but they won't hurt Dubya. They damn well better quit screwing around with the Patriot Act, though, or they're gonna get a lot of Americans killed, and the blame will lay squarely on the Democrats, not on Bush. There will be no way the Dems could spin their way out of it, they would lose any chance of becoming a congressional majority for a long time, and may as well not even run anybody for POTUS.
