The random political thoughts thread (Part Deux)

I really like the new Democratic slogan for the coming elections:

"Had enough yet?".

I may have to get a T-shirt with that on it.

I think Newt Gingrich was the one who suggested it. Seriously, I recall reading it somewhere.

How about:

"Vote Democrat in 2006: a different color of inept."

I wasn't aware they had adopted the slogan that Newt suggested tonguely in cheekly.

It would be brilliant if they did.

Ever go to the Quick Links tab and see Who's Online? Sometimes it's creepy because some of the political threads will be viewed by a 'Guest' or two. It could be Gonzales or Rove. You never know!

Vice President Dick Cheney's former top aide told prosecutors President Bush authorized the leak of sensitive intelligence information about Iraq, according to court papers filed by prosecutors in the CIA leak case.

Before his indictment, I. Lewis Libby testified to the grand jury investigating the CIA leak that Cheney told him to pass on information and that it was Bush who authorized the disclosure, the court papers say. According to the documents, the authorization led to the July 8, 2003, conversation between Libby and New York Times reporter Judith Miller.

There was no indication in the filing that either Bush or Cheney authorized Libby to disclose Valerie Plame's CIA identity.

But the disclosure in documents filed Wednesday means that the president and the vice president put Libby in play as a secret provider of information to reporters about prewar intelligence on Iraq.

Secret provider to the press about prewar intelligence... Why?

Edit: Here's CNN's take on it.
