Tit-For-Tat Times Two

In an obvious (and pathetic) reaction to calls from the US Senate for Iran's Republican Guard to be recognized as a terrorist organization, Iran has declared the US Army and CIA to be terrorist organizations.

And, in an obvious (and pathetic) reaction to the Senate resolution condemning MoveOn.org's psychotic and morally reprehensible New York Times ad calling General Petraeus a traitor, Harry Reid and his fellow travellers are calling for senators to sign a letter condemning conservative radio host Rush Limbaugh for calling phony soldiers like Jesse MacBeth "phony soldiers." Limbaugh has encouraged Harry Reid to man up and confront him personally, without the protections against slander and libel Reid enjoys on the floor of the Senate.

Personally, I think Karl Rove has arranged this imbroglio to embarrass the Dems. Yeah, either that or global warming. Or Bush and the Jooooooz.
