No Shame

All this time, as the Republicans have manipulated 911 to enter into adventures in democracy (a re-packaged pursuit of the free flow of oil,) the Democrats have refused to use the most obvious political weapon at their disposal.

911 happened on Republican watch. “Daddy” let us down. They controlled all three branches of the government and they let it happen.

Oh sure, they can and do whine that Clinton set them up, but it doesn’t change that essential fact that it happened on their watch. Democrats are, of course too essentially decent to call them on it – even as Republicans continue to threaten to hammer us on what they define as national security.

Maybe we should.
