Wacko wall street journal bimbo opines...
A year ago I wrote a column called "A Separate Peace," in which I said America's leaders in all areas--government, business, journalism--were in some deep way checking out. They saw bad things coming in the world and for our country, didn't think they could do anything about it, and were instead building a new pool or buying good memories for their kids. Soon after I was invited to address a group of Capitol Hill staffers to talk about the piece. When the meeting was over a woman walked up to me. She spoke of what was going wrong in Washington--the preoccupation with money, a lack of focus on the essentials, and the relentless dynamic of politics: first thing you do when you get power is move to keep power. And after a while you don't have any move but that move.
I said I thought the Republicans would take it on the chin in 2006, and that would force the beginning of wisdom. She surprised me. She was after all a significant staffer giving all her energy to helping advance conservative ideas within the Congress. "Yes," she said, in a quiet, deadly way. As in: I can't wait. As in: We'll get progress only through loss. That's a year ago, from the Hill. This is two weeks ago, from a Bush appointee: "I hope they lose the House." And one week ago, from a veteran of two GOP White Houses: "I hope they lose Congress." Republicans this year don't say "we" so much. What is behind this? A lot of things, but here's a central one: They want to fire Congress because they can't fire President Bush. <snip> This is not how Mr. Bush has governed. And so in the base today personal loyalty, and affection, bumps up against intellectual unease. The administration tries to get around this, to quiet the unease, with things like the Republican National Committee ad in which Islamic terrorists plot to kill America. They do want to kill America, and all the grownups know it. But this is a nation of sophisticates, and every Republican sipping a Bud at a bar in Chilicothe, Ill., who looks up and sees that ad thinks: They're trying to scare the base to increase turnout. Turnout's the key.

Re: Wacko wall street journal bimbo opines...
the republikans are going to suffer a serious blow by the democrats and be handily defeated in next tuesday's midterm election. The main stream media has stated this fact over and over and over and over and so forth and so on henceforth, forward and then some.
The democrats have ATTENTION, REMINDER: Republicans vote on 11/7/06 Democrats vote on 11/8/06 . . they all suck so it really doesn't matter who WINS does it? . . |
