It should be noted in the president’s defense. That given documents by the CIA an given documents by an unknown source should be judged a little differently.

Don’t get me wrong. I do not think Dan Rather needs to be fired. It was a mistake and it is self serving conservatives calling for his dismissal.

I also think though that the President needs to be defended in the war on terror. I believe very firmly in the Non-Aggression principle. This principle must be called into question when the security and soil of our nation is take. If we were automonous non-interventionist as we should be people would leave us alone. However as long as the LEFT wants us to be an ATM for developing nations, then the hatred against our nation is going to continue and we are going to need to defend our selves.
