Is it safe?
Is it safe?
No, that wasn't Laurence Olivier as a Nazi dentist drilling holes into Dustin Hoffman's teeth in Marathon Man as he kept repeating that question. In this case it was the Des Moines Register wondering if it was "safe" to mention that a former Obama campaign staffer, Zachary Edwards (see mug shot), who was arrested on Friday for attempted identity theft of the Iowa Republican Secretary of State, Matt Schultz, was a prominent member of a well known Democrat campaign consulting firm, LINK Strategies. On Friday, the day the Des Moines Register first briefly reported the arrest, it wasn't "safe" to mention Link Strategies:

Of course “safe” is the Des Moines Red Star’s lawyer weasel word to frame and confine their tactics to the shallow end of the pool. They specialize is running distraction and obfuscation for Dems and their liberal cronies.
They play the game Simon Says. If Obama Says be a dummie media hack, they will be the dummie media hack. If Obama says it is ok to distribute Democrat propaganda, they will distribute Democrat propaganda.
The Dregister is slightly to the left of Pravda, so anything it reports has all the credibility of the horoscope. It’s nothing but one more propaganda organ for the libs. Its sole utility lies in its absorbency.
I think what everyone is missing is that this is NOT an isolated incident, IMHO, but the tip of the ice berg. Where you find one cockroach there are a thousand behind the wall.
Heard this story reported on the radio here in Iowa. Curious they neglected to mention certain elements of this story.
It’s very apparent that main stream news outlets are ONLY useful for comedic relief or amusement in that it’s always a treat to make a kind of game out of it and listen for the verbal gymnastics, weasel words, euphemisms, logical fallacies, non-sequiters, glaring omissions, etc.
But is Secy of State Schultz a Republican?
How long are they going to protect Hussein 0bama’s theft of a Connecticut citizen’s social security number?
The Des Moines Register is one commie rag.(like most papers)
But is Secy of State Schultz a Republican?
You win a free Caribbean vacation if you can make the correct guess. BTW, InstaPundit is on this story again this morning. Now wondering how long before Drudge picks up on it. That Zach Edwards mugshot would make for a nice grapic on the Drudge Report.
I will be checking out Rush today because don't be too surprised if he uses this attempted ID theft as a segue to a LifeLock commercial.
This might be one of those 3rd rail topics for them. It’s typical of what they love accusing Republicans of.
Do I get the vacation, do I? Do I? ...Zachary Edwards (see mug shot), who was arrested on Friday for attempted identity theft of the Iowa Republican Secretary of State, Matt Schultz...
But how do I get there? I don't fly...
Woo! Hoo! I was exactly RIGHT when I predicted that Rush would use this attempted ID theft as a segue into a LifeLock commercial today. Were you listening because that is EXACTLY what happened!
