It is a pleasure to see the WH on the defensive for a change
The defensive posture the WH is taking is exactly what we need and I sure am enjoying watching them squirm.

To all those DUers who keep screaming that the Kerry camp has to take action now while bushco is reeling, they are taking the correct action. NOTHING.

The Kerry camp is quiet. The Kerry camp is letting the media ask the questions of the WH and in so doing the media is putting the negative questions in the back of voters minds. Keep up the good work Kerry Camp.

Please keep quiet Senator Kerry. Enjoy the skiing, stay a few more days and just let this wonderful turn of events simmer on its own.

Most important of all. Do not come to the defense of Clarke as that will be seen by the wrong-wing as defending a rat. We know he's a true patriot and I bet he fully expects no support that could one day backfire. Thank you for your sacrifice Mr. Clarke.

1. I agree
The Bush Corporation finally has enough rope to hang itself, and it looks like they are going to do it.

2. For a change?
The "lie house" is ALWAYS in damage control mode imho.

4. But not really
Now the press is Pressing.

It's what they do to Dems rather than let us speak to the issues.
Ask a continual stream of questions related to past actions rather than future vision.

7. I agree with your assessment
Kerry commenting right now would be overkill; he is playing it right.

8. The Trick Is When To Bring Them Back...
I 100% agree here, but with one added "twist"...

This regime feels they have walked away from several of their past lies...and while the media isn't dealing with the AWOL issue or lying about WMD, those questions/negatives haven't been fully addressed and are up to the Kerry campaign to play, one at a time, in the weeks leading to the election.

Let's let the press do some of our dirty work...there's sure to be more ahead as this regime's hubris digs them in deeper holes that beg for even more questions. Eventually people will wear down on the constant non-denial denials.

You can shoot only so many messengers.

13. I agree
Leave this Clarke issue to the Commission where he'll testify under oath. Let the chimp's administration twist in the wind without Kerry throwing any of his dessert popcorn at them. Be above the fray.
