Betty, you've got to defer to CBT on this one. Republicans certainly know more about sinking to new lows than anyone else. Really, when you look at all the things Republicans have been consistently and flagrantly wrong about -- torture, invasions, smoking out bin Laden, Chalabi, WMDs, intelligence leaks, signing statements, executive privilege, fiscal responsibility, science, bracing for Katrina, responding to Katrina, health care, morality and on and on -- there is really only one subject on which they have any credibility, and that is sinking to new lows.
