No matter how Speaker Joe de Venecia and his coterie of majority congressmen try to spin it, their abject surrender of ConAss was an unmitigated fiasco. Like Pearl Harbor, Saturday, December 9, 2006 will go down in House history as its day of infamy.

When the guilty verdict by Judge Benjamin Pozon was read on national  television, American Daniel Smith simply looked stunned, almost to the point of being catatonic. He could not believe it was happening to him, a 21-year-old kid from St. Louis, Missouri. Smith was fresh out of high school when he volunteered for the Marines in 2004, hoping it would help him save up for college and get a good start in life.
