The stink of desperation is thick in the air as the Republicans have attempted every play in their book of dirty tricks to try to squirm out of this situation — they’ve blamed the Democrats, they’ve blamed the pages themselves, they’ve tried to pin the whole thing on an aide (who promptly threw the bomb right back at them). About the only thing I haven’t heard or read about yet is them trying to blame it all on Bill Clinton, which they will no doubt work their way up to soon enough. But if all that spinning isn’t quite enough for you, you may have missed this small news item yesterday: Congress has authorized $20M for a VICTORY PARTY to celebrate our “victory in Iraq”.
