The Republicans Have Spun Themselves Out of Spin
Every one of their favorite spin techniques just aint working. So far, they've tried:

1. Blaming Clinton
2. Blaming Nancy Pelosi
3. Blaming the Media
4. Blaming Alcohol
5. Saying Dems did the same thing
6. Saying it's an election year conspiracy
7. Blaming George Soros and liberal blog sites


The only spin left is to use 9/11, but even for them, that would be a stretch.

1. Using 9/11
"The only spin left is to use 9/11, but even for them, that would be a stretch."

They'd use 9/11 if they thought it could work.

11. No, that's an easy one:
"The fuss about a few e-mails brought to everyone's attention by the media with the help of Democrat operatives does nothing more than distract this country from it's mission to pursue the terrorists responsible for 9/11. The Democrats would like to undermine our Commander-in-chief's mission to win the War on Terror, and they must be gloating over all of this, and will gloat all the way until the next terrorist attack on America, which they intend to deal with by calling the police on the perpetrators. Yada yada et nausium."

What, you guys need an ex-Republican like me to imagine this kind of crap for you?? :)

3. "We're living in a post 9/11 world... where it's OK for a Congressman to
hit on teenage pages, if he's a Republican.

4. 9/11 where he saw the horrible faces of the terrorists
was so traumatic to him that he had a traumatic psychological regression to his teenage years when he longed for companionship. He is a victim of the terrorists. That is why it is so important to stay the course and prevail in Iraq (which is of course is the central front of terra).

Hows that?

7. They've truly earned the name "pukes." Bet they're all nauseous
and dizzy now.
