The Charlotte Observer rips Rep. Virginia Foxx for her House floor comment that “we have more to fear from the potential of that bill passing than we do from any terrorist.”

Personally, I can’t help but see the irony behind such a reaction from a liberal newspaper, considering the fact that liberals did everything they could to downplay the terrorism threat and undermine the war on terror during the eight years of the evil Bush administration.

Meanwhile, it would indeed be easy to rip Sen. Kay Hagan for her apparent conflict of interest in recommending Judge Calvin Murphy to fill a federal court seat. But CJ editor Rick Henderson paints the big picture.
