I noticed in the news today that Jamie Gorelick, of 9/11 Commission infamy, turns up again as a player in the Fannie Mae kerfuffle.

Which got me to thinking. . . a dangerous precedent, that, but it happens from time to time.

I can see the political campaign TV commercial now. . . .

ANNOUNCER: Jaime Gorelick... Clinton crony... responsible for the gap between intelligence and law enforcement that contributed to the failures that led to 9/11, that cost so many lives and devastated our economy.

[Ominous music.]

ANNOUNCER: Hillary Clinton, even with a majority in congress, failed utterly to get her healthcare initiatives passed into law.

[More ominous music.]

ANNOUNCER: Jaime Gorelick, again in a seat of power at Fannie Mae, is at the center of another trillion dollar disaster...

[Slightly different ominous music.]

ANNOUNCER: ... and Nancy Pelosi has led Congress to its lowest approval ratings in history.

[Even more ominous music.]

ANNOUNCER: In a time when our image is in tatters around the world...

[Yet more ominous music.]

ANNOUNCER: ... when Americans are divided one from another...

[If you can believe it, still more ominous music.]

ANNOUNCER: ... the answer is clear. Women...

ANNOUNCER: ... just don't belong in power.

[Musical flourish.]

ANNOUNCER: Obama/Biden in 2008. No chicks on our ticket.

OBAMA VOICE-OVER: I'm Barack Obama, and I approve this message.
