Politics Not as Usual
Wow, it's all happening so fast! The indictments last week, with Patrick Fitzgerald being all Eliot Ness-like. (Karl Rove is confirmed as the source of the leak. Surely he can't stay in his position much longer.) Tuesday, Harry Reid closed down the Senate with a resounding speech (well worth reading) about Republican corruption and collusion that forced a long-overdue investigation. The CIA secret prisons that we all knew existed are being exposed for all to see. Even true conservatives such as Edward Alden and Joe Scarborough are questioning the Bush Administration. Add that to DeLay's indictments, Bill Frist's investment problems, and the emerging lobbyist scandal, and I think we just might have ourselves a democracy again.
