On the eve of the launch party blurbs already coming in from notable critics like george w. Bush. We are fortunate to have men and women who work hard at the cia serving on our behalf. These are patriots. Whatever the report says, if it diminishes their contributions to our country, it is way off base. Another critic, former cia director michael hayden. To say that we relentlessly over an extended period of time lied to everyone about a program that was not doing any good, that beggars the image. This will probably be the biggest story in politics. Will this torture report be a oneday beltway story or bigger . First of all, this would not be this big of a story it wasnt for the fact we had this reporting from Bloomberg View that said john kerry called the committee to say i want you to delay the publication of this report.

We are all jaded and cynical in various ways, but im curious to know what was the m

Are these economic numbers finally so good that the president will finally get credit . To some extent, depends on him. This economy has been good for a wild but it seems conflicted. It is doing well and the people are doing fine. He needs to take a leap from harry truman. This president has to get that message. Just imagine if it were bill clinton. We are back. We are number one. Obama needs to capture some of that. Even bill clinton was frustrated that by the end of his administration he didnt get enough credit. Who does he get it first with if the president does get credit . Business leaders, the public, congress . It is not republican members of congress, we know that. That answer was a gimm e. I think itll be more from the business community. It has to come from the public, those independentminded voters that on november 4 did not give him cr
