I think there's another element to the Democrats' flip-flop on
fully implementing the recomendations of the 9/11 Commission.
Pretty soon, the recomendations of the Baker-Hamilton group will be
made public, and the Democrats will be pressuring the White House
to accept the group's recommendations as if they were gospel. If
the Democrats have decided that they can pick and chose among the
9/11 Commission's recommendations, it makes it more difficult for
them to argue that President Bush has to embrace all of the Iraq
Study Group's suggestions.
