And Bush has been correct. The last thing we need is a three- ring circus of investigations allowing for ever more brilliant political grandstanding. The Iraqis and other foes would just interpret such a thing as showing that Bush is on the ropes politically, and wait for the knockout blow. Did you hear about the politician who lost an election because rumor had it his wife was a thespian? How about the guy who voted against the Motherhood and Apple Pie bill, the main subject of which was providing condoms to teenagers gratis, along with subsidizing desserts for school lunches? Obviously, I am inventing, but it is not too far from the kind of stupid stuff that goes on. Bringing up Bush's DUI, which occurred almost 30 years before in a resort community, before the present "zero tolerance" atmosphere, at the last minute of the campaign was almost as stupid. Who knows what sort of innuendo and melodrama would have been cooked up over 9-11.......
