Jonah sez: It will be the end of liberalism if the liberals win with their liberal ways and crush the Republican party this November:

Reading Byron's post about Kos wanting to crush the conservative movement ("Bring it on!" I say), not to mention the absurd ruby-slipper-clicking nonsense from Harold Meyerson, it occurs to me that liberals should be more careful about what they wish for. I agree with John Hood entirely (and T.S. Eliot) that the cause cannot be truly lost because no cause can truly be won.

It get's better...

Derbyshire appears to be the voice of reason today over at NR's The Corner:

I seem to have tapped into some deep vein of insanity here.
A reader: "Just admit you want to have a gay marriage with John Kerry... And stop digging yourself a deeper hole like he is."
I just watched the clip again. It was a botched anti-Bush joke. I don't see how it could be plainer.
If you're all going to go nuts here, I'm off to do a little shopping.

While Derb doesn't "see how it could be plainer," others see the botched joke for what they think it is: a political opportunity.

This is funny:

With some focusing .... Rick Santorum will win. Michael Steele will win. Jim Talent will win. The GOP will keep the House and the Senate. It will send a message that we do, in fact, live in a 9/11 world and we vote as if we are.

The very idea that Santorum is going to win because "we do, in fact, live in a 9/11 world" is really getting comical. Santorum is toast.

Today we learn that our "Former president rakes in $7.5 million via the AP. I love these stories with no context.

For example, I seem to recall a dramatic rise in the income of one Ronald Reagan immediately after his eight years. (Lots of trips to Japan as I recall... (I'll research this and update).) Read More

Sorry if someone already caught this...

According to Reuters:

The White House, in an abrupt reversal, has agreed to let the full Senate and House of Representatives intelligence committees review President George W. Bush's domestic spying program, lawmakers said on Tuesday.

Something about this doesn't sound right. Read More

This all sounds SO familiar...

As Holden keeps earning his ponies, reading him today I was struck with a neck wrenching sense of deja vu.

QUESTION: Is the U.S. going to attack Iran?
SCOTT McCLELLAN: Helen, we're pursing a diplomatic solution by working with the international community. I assume you're referring to some of the media reports. Some of the media reports I've seen, which are based on anonymous outside advisors and former officials, appear to me to be based on people that do not know the administration's thinking. I think it is a lot of wild speculation. We are working with the international community, particularly the EU-3, to pursue a diplomatic solution to a serious and growing concern.

Scott used the term twice more in the gaggle. Bush used the same phrase twice today. Now, anyone who's followed the administrations rhetorical tactics can see what's happening here: Call something "wild speculation" without denying that it also happens to be true. Read More

Washingtonian is reporting that the line being spun by McClellan (that Bush doesn't know Abramoff) is total bullshit.

The Washingtonian has seen five photos of the President with Abramoff or his family. One photo shows the President and Abramoff shaking hands at a meeting in the Old Executive Office Building, where a bearded-Abramoff introduced Bush to several of the lobbyist's native-American clients.

What's funny is how obvious this should have been to the press corp. Read More

So Bush said at the time that we'll "probably never find out who leaked" Valerie Plame's name to the press. Scott McClellan (White House Press Spokesman) said Rove and Libby we're "not involved in this." Turns out that they were $@%!ing lying. (As if we all didn't know this already.) Read More

HAHAHAHA!

Now, if you don't support Miers, it's not because she's either: unqualified, a toadie, has no paper trail, or is a crony. It must be because you're (drumroll please), SEXIST. (Speaking of sexism, I can think of at least one woman who should keep her stupid mouth shut...)
