Leahy backs down...

Reportedly, Senator Patrick Leahy who pledged to go after the Bush regime outlaws, and demand accountability for what can only be called, euphemistically, their constitutional revisionism has backed down.

An aide who works closely with the Vermont senator says that concerns about the economy must now take center stage.

As expected, a hyperactive defense department and a same-old, same-old approach to foreign policy will hide behind the Treasury's skirt.
