  3. The president's redacted truth, subjunctive outrage

    WASHINGTON - Note to GOP re Benghazi: Stop calling it Watergate, Iran-contra, bigger than both, etc. First, it might well be, but we don't know. History will judge. Second, overhyping will only diminish the importance of the scandal if it doesn't meet presidency-breaking standards. Third, focusing on the political effects simply plays into the hands of Democrats desperately claiming that this is nothing but partisan politics.

  9. The scandalously premature diagnosis of a cancer on the presidency

    If it makes me a media lackey or a tail-wagging lap dog for President Barack Obama to hold out for, you know, actual <em>evidence</em> that he had anything to do with the various and glaring misbehavior, blundering and butt-covering in the governmental ranks before I begin invoking Watergate and floating the possibility of impeachment, then so be it.
