| Oh...That Liberal Media! SeattlePI links "Spy" to Bush, not Dems |

| Caught Via Instapundit - another reason to disregard anything the Seattle Nonintelligencer writes Accused spy is cousin of Bush staffer The woman charged with working for the Iraqi spy agency is a distant cousin of President Bush’s chief of staff, Andrew Card, and has held a variety of jobs in journalism and on Capitol Hill. Susan Lindauer, 41, worked in the press offices of four Democratic members of Congress. She also worked for Fortune magazine, U.S. News & World Report, the Seattle Post-Intelligencer and Fox News. Her father, John Lindauer, was the Republican nominee for governor in Alaska in 1998. His campaign unraveled because of charges of campaign finance violations to which he pleaded no contest. Susan Lindauer is a 1985 Smith College graduate who describes herself as an anti-war activist. Gary Gambill, editor of the Middle East Intelligence Bulletin, an online publication dealing with Arab politics, said Lindauer sent him a copy of her 1998 deposition in litigation related to the December 1988 bombing of Pan Am Flight 103 over Lockerbie, Scotland. In the deposition, she said Libyan officials had been wrongly accused of orchestrating the bombing and that Libya was entitled to "financial compensation for the economic harassment her people have endured because of these blatantly false accusations." He said her arrest "raises questions about the validity of her deposition and its apparent attempt to exonerate Libya." (snip) |

| #3 A "Smithy", huh? Smithy's were fun. If I hooked up with one, I used to wait until they fell asleep and then try to shave their armpit hair. Just to see how much they'd freak out in the morning with it gone. College: It really was worth it... |

| #2 Deeper stories report the fact that Card turned her in. Of course, that doesn't hurt the president, so it can't be covered, can it? But, for just a moment, imagine what the reaction would have been had FDR's chief of staff been responsible for exposing a Nazi sympathizer/agent during WWII. There would probably be streets named after him. |
