I posted that tongue-in-cheek. You know darn well the AS types will somehow blame Bush. <g>

What happened on the Sunday Morning Talk Shows REDSTATE BLOG By noemail@noemail.org (Mark Kilmer) For Sunday, February 12, 2006 Plenty o' stuff this week. Russert held one of his noisy roundtables on MTP, debating the NSA program, and the best point was made, I think, by Pete Hoekstra of Michigan: if the Democrats thought the President was breaking the law, it was there solemn obligation to point it out at the time and try to put a stop to it. On FNS, Jack Reed shrugged off the Harry Reid-Jack Abramoff connection and declared this a Republican scandal. Of course Harry Reid is beholden to Indian tribes and gambling interests, Reid contended, as he is from Nevada. On FTN, DNC chief Howard Dean declared that Dick Cheney would be removed from office because Scooter Libby said that his superior ordered him to leak Valerie Plame's name for political purposes. Steph on TW, though, asked Condi Rice if she gave the order. On LE, Danish Prime Minister Greg Palkot Anders Fogh Rasmussen contended that the Danish government does not control what is published in a free and independent newspaper. Chuck Hagel, relishing the maverick role played-up by host Blitzer on LE, declared that the President was wrong to spy on American citizens without Congressional and court oversight. Joe Biden on TW, acting less himself and more like Howard Dean, did manage to accuse the House and Senate Intelligence Committees of being "irresponsible" for not demanding more information on the NSA program from the Bush Administration. And finally, Lynn Swann seemed comfortable and articulate on TW when discussing his conservative positions, philosophy of governance, and the need to bring African Americans into the two-party system.
