Jay Rockefeller and His Tangled Web
I don't believe Democrat leaders are quite as sanguine as they're pretending to be about the recent election results and President Bush's low approval ratings. They know that to convert these trends into an electoral sweep in 2006 they're either going to have to develop a salable policy blueprint, especially for Iraq, or -- and this is much easier and more likely -- attempt to further scandalize the president.
Could they, as others have suggested, be laying a foundation for a run at impeachment? Why else would they be recycling the outrageous "Bush lied" claims they peddled, unsuccessfully, in 2004?
I know of no other way to combat this deceit than to refute it as often as they serve it up. Otherwise, theirs will be the only voice on the issue, and they'll continue to manipulate public opinion through false pretenses.
The White House appears finally to have awakened from its slumbering naivete, as President Bush shot back last week, rebuking his partisan critics for rewriting history for political profit. But he, too, must realize that a couple of volleys of return fire won't be enough to stave off their ever-advancing forces.

Thanks for the ping. I am so enraged by Rockefeller who, by his memo alone, should have no credibility in the media. But as with Wilson, it really doesn't matter who the Democrats serve up, the media covers them as if they are the single truth tellers on the scene.
Where Rockefeller is heading I don't know...I think the Democrats simply want to tie the administration in knots and render them powerless while advancing themselves politically.
