You Know Who You Are

This letter was sent to the American Spectator KEEPING UP WITH THE WILSONS Re: John Tabin's Did Valerie Plame Lie?: Regardless of whether Plame lied, or consciously left out "inconvenient" facts, Republicans will fail to act on or publicize them. Why? Because, they have no spine for any kind of political fight. They let their nominees twist in a political wind which they have no idea of the direction. We watch the painfully obvious from flyover country: Republicans stumbling all over themselves to "make right" with the media and Democrats using the U.S. Attorney firing to mask that; THEY HAVE NO AGENDA in Washington. As we watch each arm of the executive become politically compromised by careerists that will undercut any elected officials they disagree with, we will see government get worse and less functional (if it can get any worse) until it Reagan's memory is truly regarded as an "anomaly of history" by even the most objective historians, while the delighted inheritors of the Bob Michel-Bob Dole Republicans (without those noisy Tom DeLay types around) hope for a golf date with the Dems' House or Senate Leader. -- P.
