Lewis "Scooter" Libby who? The Democrats shouldn't bet the farm on a sweep in 2006. When it comes to James Bond, the Democrats haven't stirred or shaken things up. And as the inmitable Mark Steyn put its well about Libby, he's really "the gal who played Moneypenny in ''The Living Daylights.'' Yes, that Miz. A bit player in the big picture. There's no Happy Fitzmas for the Left.

" ... Wilkerson [Colin Powell's former chief of staff, Col. Lawrence Wilkerson] is a whiny stewardess in a snit because she doesn't want to learn a new spiel. "Do you want the chicken or the beef?" She's been serving up State Department chicken in Cairo and Amman and Damascus for decades, and she's not comfortable with the new Texas beef. But the only hijack that's going on is the State Department's bland assumption that it has the right to block the president's foreign policy."


Excellent!

Toss in a little CIA and we have a full course dinner. ;)

The Democrats see the world in purely political terms. They have an increasingly tenuous grasp of the profound social, cultural and national security issues that transcend the politics and the passing figures associated with them
Pretty much what my tagline says . . .

Great Article! He nails it with the truth and adds the puns making a person laugh out loud while reading it!

And my favorite is:

The future of Iraq is mostly a matter for Iraqis now, and it's not going badly, as you can sort of tell if you decode the headlines -- "Bitterly Divided Iraqis Take Time Out From Trembling On Brink Of Civil War To Overwhelmingly Ratify New Constitution," "Three Sunnis And Their Pet Camel Boycott Poll In Sign Iraq May Be Becoming Ungovernable," etc.

A true blue conservative jurist nominated this week for the Supreme Court would go a very long way to energizing Bush's base.

"...one reason the Democratic Party is such a bunch of losers is because they're all tactics and no strategy."

They're still the lost generation.

The Bush caricature -- the idiot sock-puppet manipulated by Cheney and Rove to do their bidding -- is exactly backward. The president is his own man -- to such a degree that he seems not to notice that very few others are

Nailed it.

The Democrats see the world in purely political terms.

In other words: they want power. Everything else is incidental.

Excellent read. About the only thing he "missed" was that the left also imagined that somehow after all he describes happened, reality would get turned on it's head leading to Clinton being installed as President. A few lefties even stretch that to include Kerry. I wish they'd wake up and join the real world someday.

That's one of the best lines I've read in a long time.

> Lewis "Scooter" Libby who?

This is not the posture for Bush supporters to take.

Point out instead that this indictment proves that there
is no "climate of corruption" at the WH, because Libby
got tripped up (apparently) precisely because everyone
there was very honest and open. No one covered for him.

But sure, when you are discussing this with some koolaid
drinker, be sure to ask them who Lyndon Johnson's VP
was, and who that VP's chief was. Expect them to shortly
learn and memorize the answers.

The President isn't going to sit their and analize a fool or idiot; he just knows he is dealing with one. And you can't get any more real than that.
