Good Reading in the Washington Post

The Washington Post has some good commentary this morning. I may comment on them later but in the mean time give them a read.

• This is not the way, the hypocrisy of Tom DeLay, Bush and the Republicans. Conservative my ass.


• Fooling Ourselves,

  The presidential commission that released its report yesterday was scathing about this intelligence failure. It described an intelligence community that is "headstrong," "too slow" and "a 'Community' in name only." It dissected intelligence reports that were "riddled with errors," "disastrously one-sided" and that relied on information from "sources who were telling lies." The commission's conclusion was simply worded but devastating: "The harm done to American credibility by our all too public intelligence failings in Iraq will take years to undo."

  But not a word about holding the Bush administration accountable.

  The report blamed everyone involved in the WMD fiasco except the Bush administration officials who actually made the decision to go to war.



• Stepford Town Meetings, No dissenters allowed in Bush's campaign town hall meetings on Social Security. Isn't impersonating a Secret Service Agent against the law?
