What a John Edwards Cabinet Meeting Would Look Like

This act attempts to dictate the areas where intelligence agencies are required to collect information. And what did the Dems decide is a critical area of study? Take a look:

Democrats had a chance to try to improve our intelligence capabilities with the new budgeting act. Their big idea: that U.S. intelligence agencies spend critical resources gathering information on . . . global warming.

Let’s see…we have al Qaeda plotting relentlessly, more than a few non-AQ-affiliated morons involved in private jihads (see: Fort Dix, JFK airport), and the usual tasks required of intelligence agencies such as keeping tabs on North Korea, Iran, Russia, etc. So what kind of demented fool would want to divert money and personnel from that to helping Gore Almighty measure CO2 levels?? Nancy Pelosi and her merry band of assorted buffoons, that’s who.

In fact, this was done before, during the Clinton administration. The money quote from the article:

as Rep. Pete Hoekstra, ranking Republican on the House Intelligence Committee, reminds us, the first attempt to bomb the World Trade Center was made in 1993, and Osama bin Laden issued his declaration of war against America in 1996. While these important events were taking place, Hoekstra writes, the CIA “ordered intelligence analysts and collectors to write about volcano eruptions, fish schools and air pollutions.”

I’d love to hear some questions about THIS at the Dems’ debate tonight…the answers would be priceless.
