Harry Reid's "Stunt"
Sen. Roberts accused the Democrats of pulling a political stunt by forcing the Senate into a rare closed session and demanding that the Senate Intelligence Committee complete its investigation into WMD and the deceptions by the White House leading up to the war.
Roberts accused Democrats of pulling a political "stunt" when Minority Leader Harry Reid made the motion Tuesday.
Democrats said the move was necessary to overcome Republican efforts to "obstruct" a full investigation and a reluctance to investigate how administration officials handled the intelligence used to sell Congress and the public on invading Iraq....
The move, which Majority Leader Bill Frist said he took as an "affront" to his leadership, came during a time of partisan tensions in the Senate.
Since this is two days old and has been all over the news, I will only mention that this reminded me of the scene in Casablance when Col. Renault walks into Rick's and says, "I'm shocked, shocked to find that gambling is going on in here!" What we have here is pure political sport, where the Republicans are trying to score points with the public, expressing their outrage at something they have been doing for years.
