    Best part of that story? It was written by Walt Cronkite! Whom, I've discovered through some googling, is the grandson of Walter Cronkite.

    Or a backroom promise for a safe landing after loyal service rendered.
    As Holder will very probably get.
    It's how these folks roll.

    I can't believe the President was heckled again during a major speech.

    When are Conservatives going to learn that interrupting the the President just makes all of us look bad.

    I join my liberal colleagues here in denouncing the heckler. Criticize her all you want. She won't have me to defend her.

    Next question: How is this administration more treasonous and worthy of impeachment as compared with a White House that used the press to out Valerie Plame in the name of, oh I don't know ... patriotism?

    And then it was patriotism that led the president to commute a 30-month prison sentence after only four months were served? "Excessive" punishment, he said. For exposing state secrets and compromising national security, etc.

    One man took the fall for that, but how many other "senior White House officials" were involved?
