More outrage

Hard to believe that this administration could engage in even more outrageous conduct, but The Washington Post reports that American authorities in Baghdad's Green Zone have been handing out "tip sheets" on Democratic lawmakers who have come to Iraq as part of their congressional oversight responsibilities (and to help their credibility back home, let's admit). These sheets, which talkingpointsmemo.com aptly notes "read like they were written by the RNC," represent the latest effort to politicize every aspect of United States government policy. If politics no longer stops at the water's edge, we might at least have expected it to stop in the war zone. But no.

Even after all this time, we need to remind ourselves that they truly have NO shame.
