The Hartford (CT) Advocate

has an interesting piece saying the GOP's goose is cooked. I'd love to see them right on this. Not to take down the GOP, but to remove a very dangerous administration from office.

Meanwhile, the administration is now telling us that intelligence tells them Al Qaeda is becoming a stronger and stronger force in Iraq, targeting American soldiers. Oh hell, I'm willing to believe that. But a) this administration can't even keeps its lies straight b) the intelligence has been faulty on many fronts c) there's always someone new to blame for the attacks on Americans (insurgents, Saddam loyalists, foreign fighters...). Geez.
