Carl Levin (d-MI)....Bush Apologist?
Heard an interview on NPR today with him, missed the start, was amazed at the end when they back-announced who it was.

He hit almost every RW talking point about the WOT.

1. Absolutely not.
Which should probably tell us something, if we're willing to listen.

2. I can't answer that question without hearing the interview myself.
However - Levin is one of the last Dems I'd expect to protect Bushco.

6. I don't understand what's so controversial about what he said
I guess the person who made the OP must have disagreed with Levin and felt it was necessary to called him a Bush apologist.

7. I have re-listened
and it is not the same interview. I take it back. I am not sure who I heard now, I had about 100 things going on at the time.

It must have been a local interview.

3. What RW talking points did he use?
He's certainly not a Bush apologist.

4. Because He Doesn't Trust Pakistan?
I'm not sure that I disagree with him.

8. Levin? I don't think so.
He has a great track record.
