Foul Ball from Left Field

Foul Ball from Left Field

Here's is James P. Pinkerton's assessment of Dr. Rice's testimony and the subsequent release of the PDB.

It is an excellent source for an all-in-one-place recount of how the Left will approach these event.

He willfully twists all of it into to sounding as though Bush got a memo saying, "Bin Laden, 9-11-01, early morning, Twin Towers, Pentagon, Capital, 4 planes."

He also likes making Dr. Rice sounds as though she was a schoolgirl out of her depth at the hearings.

If that's how the Left wants to see it, fine. I think that the average American who read the text of the memo, and hears the comments of Mr. Ben-Veniste's fellow panel members, will understand that this was a warning from 3 YEARS earlier.

When someone comes up to you and tells you that, three years ago, someone threatened the last guy who held the job you now hold, but who hasn't been heard from about it since, would you jump up and do something? Or would you, like most people, think that that was interesting but not enough to act on just yet since there WERE reports of other things happening that WERE recent and immediate?

All of this is the Left imploding. They cannot stand Bush and will purposely make it sound as though Bin Laden called up and said he was a-comin'.

He didn't . Get over it.
