David Limbaugh has a great article on the liberal attempt to halt the Republican agenda.
The objective fact is that President Bush and Republicans won decisively. The lesson most reasonable people would take from such a victory is not that they were doing something wrong and they better back off from it. While I agree that winners shouldn't become highhanded, neither should they act like losers.
Why should President Bush voluntarily surrender his just-affirmed political capital by capitulating to the demands of Democrats? Wouldn't that be as much of a slap in the face to voters, who just endorsed his agenda, as becoming cocky?
UPDATE: Bernard Moon on the liberal elite's version of the conservative Christian.
Oddly enough, we believe in the deity of Jesus Christ and the literal translation of the Bible. We also believe in the necessity of the separation of church and state, know that Jesus would not be a Republican nor claim allegiance to any earthly organization, do not hate Jews, and do not hate gays and lesbians. Lastly, we do not want to establish a Christian kingdom, since the only one we should have our eyes on is the eternal kingdom.
So please do not hate or fear us. We seem to be misunderstood with multiple myths surrounding our beliefs, motivation, and existence.
UPDATE II: Gloria Borger whines.
O, the irony! Whatever happened to the inspired young turks, those feisty backbenchers who were going to democratize the place? They now have a lock on the institution, and they're acting like they own it. At least it took Democrats 40 years of unbroken power to reach that point; these folks have taken way less time. Even the arrogance of power moves at a faster pace these days.
