BY MARK STEYN SUN-TIMES COLUMNIST Well, that old Iraqi quagmire just keeps getting worse and worse, if only for the Democratic Party. What was the straw they were clutching at back in January? Oh, yeah, sure, gazillions of Kurds and Shiites might have gone to the polls, but where were the Sunni? As some of us said at the time, the Sunni'll come out tomorrow. And so they did. On Thursday, they voted in record numbers, leaving Howard Dean and Nancy Pelosi and the rest of the Democrats frantically scrambling for another disaffected Iraqi minority group they could use as proof that the whole crazy neocon war-for-oil scam was a bust. Unfortunately, there don't seem to be any disaffected Iraqi minority groups left. Oh, wait, there's Ahmed at 37 Sword of the Infidel Slayer Gardens in Ramadi. Apparently, he's still rejecting the new constitution. Maybe, if we're lucky, he's got a brother who's mildly irked. Whoops, sorry, they just went off to vote, too. Heigh-ho. The Iraq election's over, the media did their best to ignore it, and, judging from the rippling torsos I saw every time I switched on the TV, the press seem to reckon that that gay cowboy movie was the big geopolitical event of the last week, if not of all time |

Precisely so....and what did they scramble for? Why, that nasty, criminal terrorist Bush is using the NSA to spy!!!
Stop the Presses!
Front page, above the fold, the first 6 minutes of EVERY evening newscast...for the next week, at least until the bitter stench of the Dem's failure to destroy our efforts in Iraq has been cleansed from the American mind.
Nevermind the fact that the NSA has been doing this for every president since their inception back in the 70s.
It's NEWS!!!! that they are also doing it for Bush. And it's NEWS!!!!! right now, right this instant!!!
I wonder why....?
Now the Dems/Libs are trying DESPERATELY to find any other diversion from any truth's or any positive realities in this war. I find that these BUFOONS violate more of our civil liberties than the Patriot Act. Quite frankly, has anyone on here actually feel their rights are violated because of so called spying or eavesdropping of NSA to hopefully diverge or foil any attacks on our soil? Aw Geeze, I think it was that 3 hour phone call I made in Pakistan they were listening on...bummer now they really have foiled my plans (sarcasm). Seriously, if they want to listen in on my conversation with my parents in Florida they may just fall asleep.
I had quite the laugh when I saw that headline. Surely a "duh" moment if there ever was one. What the hell do these people think the NSA is FOR?! Do they actually walk around thinking that the government ISN'T spying on them?
Call me a fatalist, a survivalist, a realist, whatever. I know my government spies on people. I know it spends billions of dollars every year on projects that I have never approved and I will never know about and probably do not want to know about. I know it has committed, is committing, and will comit horrible crimes against individuals and entire societies. I am not stunned by these facts and that is why I sleep the sleep of the dead every ****** day. This is the government of a superpower, not the local Girl Scout council.
