Hastings Feeling The Heat
As Mickey Kaus notes, the campaign against placing impeached ex-judge Alcee Hastings in the chair of the House Intelligence Committee must be bearing fruit, because Hastings is sounding desperate:
Alcee Hastings has mounted his defense, and it looks like the last-ditch variety. In a “Dear Colleague” letter, Hastings writes, “I hope that my fate is not determined by Newt Gingrich, Sean Hannity, Ann Coulter, Michelle Malkin, Michael Barone, Drudge, anonymous bloggers, and other assorted misinformed fools.”** Roll Call reports the letter also says Hastings has “requested a 45-minute meeting with Pelosi to discuss his 1983 trial and subsequent events … “
I’ve been wrong before, but I think Pelosi learned something from the Murtha affair. This appointment is on its deathbed…

and other assorted misinformed fools So who are these fools?
He and the DNC are the bigger fools for taking up valuable mouth-breathing space when an untainted candidate could have been occupying the district now represented by that crook.
Burn, Baby, Burn.
