The following post from Spinsanity Dowd spawns Bush media myth helps to explain what I have been talking about (here and here, for example) regarding al Qaeda and liberal criticism of the President regarding al Qaeda. I had been wondering where this meme had originated that the administration had declared al Qaeda essentially out of commission.
The post linked above, and Andrew Sullivan, point out how at least part of the problem derives from a Maureen Dowd column, and then was propogated by Bill Press and Paul Begala.
Amazing.
(As I was typing Rush started talking about this on his program. He must've surfed over to Andrewsullivan.com about the same time I did :)
