Howard Dean Should Thank Sen. Durbin

Radio blogger reviews Durbin's remarks in detail and comes to two conclusions:

1) Sen. Durbin is digging himself an ever deeper hole with his new lies,
2) Howard Dean is happy again, as the Democrats found a new Jackass of the Day.

Incidentally, the "FBI memo" that Durbin used to base his remarks is highly dubious, according to Fox News:
One knowledgeable official familiar with the memo cited by Durbin as well as other memos said the FBI agent made no such allegation and that the memo described only someone chained to the floor. Anything beyond that is simply an interpretation, the official said.

The worst thing about this whole episode is that Durbin and the media need to make up their own facts to try to lose the war and bring down the U.S.
