"Stay on the offensive." If we have learned nothing from the last 5 years of political experience, it is that those on the offensive succeed.
Rove understands this... Hence the one-two punch of Durbin and 9/11 therapy.
He knows that Downing Street/Failure on Social Security/Continuing Insurgency has put his team on the defensive the way that Abu Graib Photos/Sy Hersh/Insurgency did before it. And just as Swift Boat was his way of orchestrating an uber-counter-offensive to last year's mess, he is in the process of launching a counter-offensive against this year's mess.
That is why we must now push forward, the fact that: The War began with Illegal Bombing. See It's the Bombing Stupid.
The DSM "fixed intelligence" meme has broken through, and the American Public is already beginning to blame Bush for the war. If they become aware that he illegally started the war without the approval our representatives, it pull put a nail in the coffin of Karl's counter-offensive.
So let's keep an eye on Rawstory and Michael Smith and DSM etc. And let's stay on the offensive. It's the Bombing, Stupid.
