Who Was Politicizing Homeland Security?
Synopsis:
Dems claim Bush is politicizing Homeland Security.
Dems get it handed to them in the election, in part because voters think Republicans are better on National Security issues.
Homeland Security, as the President wanted it, appears close to passage.
Again, who was playing politics?
*** Update ***
A reader asks why I say only Democrats were playing politics. I say this, because this is what Bush and company have wanted from the get-go. Dems, if they were acting on principle and not because of polls, would continue their opposition. Changing your position because you lost an election is not standing on principle.
