Enough already.

It's sloppy biased journalists who got us into this debacle in Iraq, who let Bush and Cheney lie to the country repeatedly, without a single challenge. Now they're accusing critics of this entirely botched war on terror of being Democrats - i.e., that's code for being an Osama-loving soft-on-defense knee-jerk fag-loving liberal.

This is MSNBC's O'Donnell interviewing a former CIA agent who is critical of Bush's non-existent hunt for Osama:
O'DONNELL: So, Gary, you say that you knew where Osama bin Laden was and the president says he was in a cave with a door on it.

BERNTSEN: Well, let me say this. We tracked bin Laden with our reporting from Kabul, down to Nangarhar Province, into Jalalbad, down into the mountains. We had a steady stream. But, you know, every once in a while you get a report that says he's off, you know, in left field.

Here at this place or that place, but when you get a line of reporting, a stream of it, and we're marking it on a map, we can see consistently, you know, which way he's moving and from multiple sources. And then, of course, we were listening to his voice on an unencrypted radio.

O'DONNELL: Can I ask you, Gary, are you a Democrat?

BERNTSEN: No, I'm a Republican. And I'm a loyal supporter of the president and I think the president is doing a good job in the fight on terrorism.
What kind of a question is that?

And Norah, next time you interview a mom who's murdered her three young children, be sure to ask her "are you a Republican?"
