With Friends Like These ...

... who needs enemies.

Leaving the aside the fact of Matthew Dowd being one of the architects of the horrid Republican machine lead by Karl Rove and President Bush, to attack his personal life to discredit this criticism of the Bush White house is shameless.

Dowd is finally coming clean, and he had to know the push-back was coming. But going after his personal life? This is what the White House does to its friends; no wonder these guys never hesitate to screw the rest of us.

Indeed.
