Greenwald has the details on Howie Kurtz, from Cursor, a link to a report from the Politico on the attempt by both Clinton and the GOP to spin national security.
It's good to see Obama isn't backing down--of course, it remains to be seen how the media will attempt to frame things. But the fact remains that the so-called "smart, pragmatic" people vis-a-vis "national security issues" ARE the ones who got us bogged down in Iraq (and for which they've paid remarkably little, literally or politically)...
Besides, the very fact that someone will try to spin national security matters is an admission that, for that someone, national security is little more than a game. You don't spin serious matters of national importance.
Well, unless you're a wingnut hack.
