Well, good for Frist! About time. Of course, the slimey little weasels are no doubt meeting anyway, although not officially. I wish we would just throw every one of them out on their ears and start all over. There are at least a few democRATs in public office that should be tried for treason. My personal opinion is that there are more than a few.

[First Amendment]

Great!!! A spine *and* other necessary anatomical features!!

Note this miserable excuse by the Dems:

Nevada Sen. Harry Reid complained on the Senate floor that the memo had been "pilfered" by Republicans then leaked to the media, saying that act was just as offensive as anything revealed by the controversial document.

That's tantamount to saying that "outing" a criminal is just as bad if not worse than the original criminal act. Doublespeak and lies. The liberal/leftist language in a nutshell.

Okay......I was a tiny tot during Watergate and frankly don't remember any of it except that my afternoon cartoons weren't on, but I just read an account of the whole thing from the perspective of the special prosecutor, Jaworski's, grandson in Texas Monthly magazine.

Am I just stupid, or does this whole democrat memo thing not measure up to the violations discussed in the Jaworski story? I kind of think it does, only instead of the sanctity of the Presidency, it's the safety and national security of the American people.....

Nevada Sen. Harry Reid complained on the Senate floor that the memo had been "pilfered" by Republicans then leaked to the media, saying that act was just as offensive as anything revealed by the controversial document.

"Pilfered"?.....I don't think so. The Republicans did not seek out this memo. Someone with close ties to the committee, who apparently saw this dispicable Rat plot for what it is, put the good of their country above the good of the Democratic party, and came forward with this memo. The Republicans now have to turn up the heat, making sure the people of this country know about this memo, and what the implications are for national security. They have to blast the Dems 24/7 in the media the way the Rats did with Trent Lott after Strom Thurmond's birthday celebration. Unlike Lott's innocent, off the cuff remark, this is a calculated, closely coordinated Rat plot to undermine our efforts in Iraq, and our national security, for the purpose of political gain. The Republicans need to do everything possible to see to it that the American people are made aware of the true significance of the Dem's actions.

[Alas Babylon!]

The democrats are trying to spin this, so this is what we'll all hear over the next few days:

A. The republicans caused this, because they were trying to protect the Presdient from any probes or hearings on "The President Lied About WMD".
B. The democrats simply wanted to get to the bottom of why we went to war over WMD and now, however, cannot find them.
C. The democrats simply want to know "What did the President know, and when did he know it?"
D. This is not partisan on the democrats part, but by the republicans and the administration.
E. The eeeevvvviiiillll republicans did far worse to the BELOVED President Clinton, so why should the republicans be outraged?
F. It's just politics. Nothing new under the sun. Yawn...
G. The republicans are making a mountain out of a molehill in order to take the focus off Bush's failed Iraqi war/quagmire.
H. The republicans stole this memo and violated some secrecy law somewhere.

Expect to see the media carry these talking points over the next few days, as the shutdown of the Senate Intelligence Committee can't be ignored. What we conservatives need to do is pre-emptively start knocking down these talking points NOW!

[Ladysmith]

YES!!!

Now find out who the treasonous SOB's are!

[HighWheeler]

"Those responsible for this memo appear to be more focused on winning the White House than they are on winning the war against terror," Frist complained...

Duh.....gee Frist, what was your first clue? This here memo? You knew nothin' about the underhandedness of the Dem RATS until now?

Someone send this guy a free subscription to FreeRepublic.

[Barnacle]

"Those responsible for this memo appear to be more focused on winning the White House than they are on winning the war against terror,"

The ends justify the means. It’s the Bolshevik way.

Is there really any doubt as to where the loyalty of those people lies? It certainly is not to America.

[The Wizard]

hugh

[CDHart]

This is odd: I just went to Frist's Senate web page, and for some reason I couldn't send him an e-mail congratulating him. Also the web page had a message saying it was down. Would that be because there are many people trying to e-mail him, or because it's been sabotaged?

I haven't read the thread, so I don't know if you've seen this, yet.

To say Frist has surprised me a great deal would be an understatement.

Go Ole Miss!

[Dustbunny]

Wow, he does have a backbone.

Unfortunately it won't last, it will shrivel like most of the Republican backbones. The dems know we won't push and will give up in a short period of time.

[Pan_Yans Wife]

PING

[blake6900]

I don't think we'll be hearing anymore nonsense about "who leaked the CIA operative's name" from these assho!es for awhile...

[Wolfstar]

Wow! I'm only just catching up to the latest news on this story. I'm truly surprised and pleased Frist took this step. However, I won't believe the senate Republican leadership has finally grown spines unless they continue this hard-line stance.

[TexasCajun]

Alright! Atta-Boy!

Could Frist & the RNC be monitoring FR? ...let's hope so.

[Ann Archy]

Frist Finally found the keys to the Cajones Closet!!! WAY TO GO PUBBIES!!

They make me proud today!!! HARDBALLLLLLLLLL

[diamond6]

Finally, a Republican with ba$%s.
