DoN Gets a Little Bit Smug, Politically

Tough times for The Angel of Death (Dubya, for those of you who are still sporting kid gloves). The latest Wall Street Journal/NBC News poll is a Democrat's dream. Click on the link to see the numbers for yourself, but the thing that I'm most excited about is the fact that 80% of Americans see the indictment of lil' Scooter Libby in the outing of Valerie Plame, CIA agent as a serious matter.

Remember doing analogies on the ACT or SAT college entrance exam? Those onerous word pairings where you had to determine the relationship between the first two words and then duplicate it?

Here's one for Bushie, then.

Monica Lewinski : Bill Clinton :: Valerie Plame : George W. Bush

At least Bill had a good time with the woman who brought down his presidency.

    A. Flaxen
    B. Steely Eyed
    C. Masked
    D. Pierced

    Would it not endanger innocent people further, I would like to know who (of Plame's contacts) has been hurt, killed, or compromised by the cannabalistic outing of a woman who dedicated her life to this country knowing all the while the job would be thankless.

    No one is leaking that information accidentally or otherwise.

  2. ummmmm....A!? Sigh. Haven't gotten the "flaxen" word yet, but I'm sure that one is used plenty in the romance novel industry, still, at least in the historicals. NOT that I am demeaning that genre in the least; one of my dearest friends is a romance novelist for Harlequin, and she works hard for that house. Anyway, yes, I absolutely agree with your sentiment re: Plame's outing. And I am duly impressed by your use of the word "cannibalistic. It is gorgeous in this instance.--nance
