Jonah Goldberg
The Corner

While I think there's much hyperbole and silliness to be found in this bit from Charles Pierece at Tapped. He does have a point. It's fairly absurd for the Washington Post to give this "senior administration official" anonymity to score a point which belongs in a GOP press release:


<<< "A senior administration official, who spoke on the condition of anonymity because the issue is still being debated internally, seemed to hint at the potential political implications in Congress. "Members of both parties will have to decide whether terrorists who cherish the killing of innocents deserve the same protections as our men and women who wear the uniform," this official said." >>>

And I say this as somone who basically sees nothing wrong with making a political issue out of the Hamdan decision. If Democrats want terrorists to fall under the Geneva Convention let them say so. My guess is most won't, if they're smart.
