Evans-Novak Political Report
It is hard to cut the gloom among Republicans on
Capitol Hill about the 2008 elections. They see
Democrats winning three ways - actually increasing
their margins in both the House and Senate and
putting Sen. Hillary Clinton (D-N.Y.) in the White
House. These Republicans are counting on excesses
of an all-Democratic government in 2009-10 leading
to a GOP comeback in the 2010 election.

Short on Money, McCain Campaign
Dismisses Dozens
The presidential campaign of Senator John McCain,
the Arizona Republican who once seemed poised to
be his party's nominee in 2008, acknowledged
yesterday that it was in a political and financial crisis
as a drop in fund-raising forced it to dismiss dozens
of workers and aides and retool its strategy on where
to compete.

Can
We Keep the Republic?
by Michael Quinn Sullivan
At the conclusion of the Constitutional Convention in
1787, it is said, Benjamin Franklin (then 81 years old)
was approached with a very pointed question. The
people wanted to know what form of government had
been created for the newly independent nation.
Franklin's answer, "A republic, if you can keep it."

Bush Commutes
Libby's Prison Sentence
President Bush yesterday commuted the 30-month
prison sentence of I. Lewis "Scooter" Libby, just hours
after a federal appeals-court panel said the former
White House aide could not remain free on bond
pending an appeal.
President Bush Steps Up to the Plate for
Libby
If there were ever a classic example of a fall guy, it is
Lewis "Scooter" Libby. This man had served
honorably for years in many roles including Vice
President Cheney's chief of staff. Then, after a witch
hunt, he was convicted and sentenced to 2 1/2 years
in prison for his role in the infamous CIA "leak" case.
Conservatives called for President Bush to pardon
Libby, but the White House was slow to respond.
Now, after many long months, Libby can breathe a
sigh of relief.
I was a
fanatic...I know their thinking, says former radical
Islamist
When I was still a member of what is probably best
termed the British Jihadi Network - a series of British
Muslim terrorist groups linked by a single ideology - I
remember how we used to laugh in celebration
whenever people on TV proclaimed that the sole
cause for Islamic acts of terror like 9/11, the Madrid
bombings and 7/7 was Western foreign policy.
By blaming the Government for our actions, those who
pushed this "Blair's bombs" line did our propaganda
work for us.
