Return of the Jack Bauer Body Count…

Voldemort’s Kerry-like Shift on Iraq…
Drew Cline at the New Hampshire Union Leader has some spot-on analysis of Candidate H. R. Voldemort, the Junior Senatrix from the State of New York. Now: “I said that it was not a vote for pre-emptive war.” Then: “A vote for it is not a vote to rush to war; it is a vote …
