Who will be the DSM fall guy? (don't say Lee Majors)

[Catch22Dem]

Seriously, it's a big enough story now that someone will have to take the fall. Who will it be? Some low-level flunky none of us has heard of?

1. Like all the other scandals, it will be someone in the media. n/t

2. Don't Bush and Blair have to admit some degree of guilt?

I realize that in any world other than Bush-Cheney II that's a STUPID question, but...

Don't you think Junior and the Poodle ducked the issue rather nicely in yesterday's press conference?

Yes, it's a big story. But if Bush keeps saying "we didn't do it," who's going to be big enough to say "YES, YOU DID?"

It's like the old Pee Wee Herman "I know you are, but what am I" riff.

Based on the evidence I have seen so far, my answer to your question is "no one."

And I say that in light of those who followed the Plame affair and said "Rove is goin' DOWN on this one!"

Rove isn't down, the last time I looked. And how long has it been since the media mentioned Valerie Plame?

3. Been awhile since Clinton was blamed. Maybe they'll go after Hilliary

for this.

4. Who's Lee Majors

Aw, I'm jes kiddin'...

5. BOLTON. Thrown under the bus to give dems something for Owens, Pryor....

...and Brown. And to place blame for WMD fiasco on someone who is believable as a loose cannon.

If I were Bolton, I'd be very careful to leave important information in a safe place...he could be the answer to a lot of scandals facing the adminsitration.

6. In a perfect world, the entire PNAC

They're the Botton-Line issue. It all begins and ends with PNAC.

If it could happen to Nixon........
