    She's part of a mostly Republican group of legislators who compromised national security secrets a while ago during the Bush years. This story's been floating around vis a vis a whistleblower for a while now, and the AC took this bite out of it.

    Anyway, I read about this on Rawstory.com about a month ago. They had some pretty thorough coverage. Bradblog was all over this too: [www.bradblog.com]

    There is only one reason why the American Conservative cares about this story: Chicago. This is simply part of on an ongoing campaign to make Chicago synonymous with corruption and illegality. Obviously, there is a lot of corruption in Chicago, but the right has focussed on anything they can tie to Chicago since Obama became President. It's the new "Taxachusetts".

    Sibel Edmonds is one of the original 9/11 "Truthers" and widely considered to be totally nuts.

    American Conservative is really a paleoconservative publication (NOT mainstream conservative), which is as strongly anti-war as many on the left.

    It's also a haven for some of the most noxious bigots, conspiracy kooks, xenophobes, creationists and general creeps out there.

    @The One: Brad Friedman, who has promoted this story, but HARD, sees his site as a balance to the Drudge Report, too. I'm not sure how much he believes it, but I think Brad loves to stir shit up, and the Edmonds story certainly could do that.

    Honestly, I like the guy for his hustle.

    Why does this sound like a plot point out of a Newt Gingrich/Bill O'Reilly spy novel?

    Schakowsky's had her share of tragedy, including very recently this Summer when her son-in-law died while on a family vaction; and her daughter-in-law died of cancer a few years ago leaving her son with some very young children. She's also a really good, warm person. I just hate to think of her being pulled into this kind of crap.

    I would like more information on how to convince lesbians of Mediterranean-area descent that I have a bunch of nuclear secrets worth pursuing. Thanks in advance.
