Fancy Nancy and her memory problems

162 Democrats in Congress voted to go to war in 2003--after months of study, debate, building international alliances and proclaiming the build up of WMD during the years of Bill Clinton. But unfortunately, these are the same folks who didn't read the bail out numbers and passed it anyway proclaiming the sky is falling (and now they've proved it). So I'm guessing those still left, like John Kerry, Barney Frank, Chris Dodd, Hilliary Clinton, Jack Murtha, Joe Lieberman, etc. will follow Nancy Peloser and swear they have no memory of being briefed about anything, especially not interrogation techniques. For pity's sake, they thought we used water guns and gossip to find out the enemies' secrets. Doesn't everyone? It was those evil Bushies who brainwashed them (without waterboarding) into believing there was a global terrorist threat after 9/11.

Not too long ago librarians, university faculty and other ACLU-an and Hollywood types got the vapors at the thought Wal-Mart was using RFID tags to track pallets, because citizens would be next, and there was that awful Patriot Act (also voted for by Democrats) which allowed the government, with a warrant, to listen in on terrorists in the US contacting those abroad. But they are certainly silent about violation of First Amendment rights at peaceful demonstrations called Tea Parties. In fact, they are joining a chorus of ridiculers and paranoid Obama protectors who go on national TV to proclaim our Constitutional protections are dangerous because not everyone voted for the messiah.

Isn't funny how politics changes your viewpoint on privacy and terrorism with just a stroke of midnight, January 19, 2009.
