After a week like this, it's almost possible to have outrage fatigue. In just one week, we've dealt with:
the outrages of abuse and neglect at Walter Reed and other military medical facilities that are supposed to care for our wounded soldiers and vets;That's just one week of news from the Bush Administration and his Republican allies. But each of those represent years of lies, nefarious behavior and in some cases actual criminal conduct.
the fact that leading Republicans, including Representatives Bill Young (R-FL) and Tom Davis (R-VA) knew about the conditions at Walter Reed and did NOTHING:
the revelations of political pressure being applied (by Senator Domenici, Rep. Heather Wilson and Rep. Doc Hastings for sure) to the now-fired U.S. Attorneys in pending cases;
the Scooter Libby verdict which represents the much bigger story of lying about the Iraq war and outing an undercover spy for partisan reasons;
the FBI breaking the law by spying on Americans; and
the confirmation that the escalation in Iraq is much bigger then Bush said it would be.
Anyway, that's what I woke up thinking about on a Saturday morning. What's the latest outrage?
