What is O'Malley thinking?
I am sitting now in the Anchorage, Alaska, public library, reading online the Baltimore Sun. I am wondering if Baltimore Mayor Martin O'Malley really said:
I remember after the attacks of September 11, as mayor of the city, I was very, very worried about al-Qaida and still am. But I'm even more worried about the actions and inactions of the Bush administration.
Given my current distance from Baltimore, it seems almost like a parody of life to read that these remarks landed WBAL jockey Chip Franklin on Bill O'Reilly's show, but I supposed it all really happened. Figures I would miss all this political excitement in Baltimore!
This is just another example of mayoral meltdown in the city, as our once tough-on-crime candidate that filled many city residents with hope descends like a freefalling elevator into kneejerk liberalism and perhaps even the Hard Left.
