Or Nancy Pelosi's <a href="http://www.house.gov/pelosi/press/releases/Nov05/budget.html" rel="nofollow">partisan statement</a> attacking the failure of the House to pass the budget resolution. And besides, I don't think you can seriously make the claim that a Senator's public statements and votes should be considered "opposition research." Now, if they had hosted Kennedy's bar bill from the local strip club on the White House website, perhaps you'd have a case... Nor can you seriously object to the White House providing the text of a newspaper article in one of the nations leading newspapers... seriously...

And besides, I don’t think you can seriously make the claim that a Senator’s public statements and votes should be considered “opposition research.” Now, if they had hosted Kennedy’s bar bill from the local strip club on the White House website, perhaps you’d have a case… Nor can you seriously object to the White House providing the text of a newspaper article in one of the nations leading newspapers… seriously…

I'm Sicilian. We don't whine or cry "foul", we get even-- as gleefully maliciously as possible. I want to see every Democratic Senator and Representative using their taxpayer-funded website for oppo-research and anti-Bush propoganda. One's an outrage, two's a party. Now. Gloves off. Shrub wants to play rough? Great, well fuck them. Let's do it! Who cares? I’m Sicilian. We don’t whine or cry “foul”, we get even– as gleefully maliciously as possible.
