Democrats and the al-Jazeera bombing

The Democrat campaign team at work:

"Two (UK) Labour MPs have defied the Official Secrets Act by passing on the key contents of the British document revealing that President George Bush wanted to bomb the Arabic TV station, al-Jazeera.

The document, a transcript of a meeting with Tony Blair in April 2004, is already the subject of an unprecedented official secrets prosecution in Britain, against an aide to one of the MPs and another man.

The two MPs decided in October 2004 to reveal the key information in the transcript to John Latham, a Democrat supporter living in San Diego, California. They hoped to influence the impending 2004 US election, Mr Kilfoyle said.

But it was decided not to write to US newspapers at the time. It is understood Democrats feared Mr Bush's behaviour, if exposed, might win him votes, rather than lose them.

As a result, the facts remained secret for more than a year." (link)

ok. here's the thing. maybe the Democrats were right. maybe it would have been a net positive for Preznit Blinky - they were crazy times. John Kerry suggested that the Osama video lost him the election (as well as Diebold), and most americans apparently wouldnt know qatar from iraq - so let's give the Democrats the benefit of the doubt.

But, what the hell was their excuse on November the 6th? and December? January? How about when the DowningStreetMemos were leaked? How about when Blinky was bleeding support in the summer when the bitchintheditch was asking questions? Or when the 2000th soldier died?

The Democrats sat on the news that the Idiot Son was seriously considering major war crimes and starting a war in another country - and they sat on it for a year. wtf?

sheesh.
