Blue Star Chronicles (Beth) Rumsfeld’s Address to the American Legion — “I put the entire speech in this post because it is being categorized in the MSM as Rumsfeld ‘accusing’ democrats of cowardice. He doesn’t say that anywhere in this speech.”
Captain’s Quarters (Ed Morrissey) Bill Frist Pledges To Take S 2590 To Floor — “. . . I want to be sure that CQ readers read what Senator Frist told us about the Coburn-Obama federal budget database bill, S. 2590. An anonymous Senator has placed this bill on hold, but as Frist explains, it’s not as much of an obstacle as first thought.” [Captain Ed was part of a discussion with Leader Frist. In addition to this post on S. 2590 you should also read the posts on Politics and Iran. Jim]
