Michael Kinsley is a tool–I’d also go with “presumptous ass”. I loved his definition of “swift boating” as well.

As long as these “reality challenged”–most definitely not “reality based” tools bray along, then they’re going to have their hat handed to them.

“The hatred of George W. Bush on the left–and the eagerness to see him gone–is at this point as extreme as anything the right has to offer. (I know this because I share it.)” Well, at least he acknowledges being an extremist.

Why does ‘presumptuous ass’ come to mind when I read this article?

Tom, that entire article was pure comedy.

It was either that, or cry when I considered that he calls himself a journalist.

“Affluent people who give to the Republican Party are advancing their own class interests, whereas those who give to the Democrats generally aren’t.”

No, of course not…they’re Democrats. Any fool can see that.

I keep thinking about McCain’s appearance on SNL: “Go ahead, fight amongst yourselves.”

If Hillary’s supporters stay home or vote for McCain, this is going to be ugly for Obama.

Lex … from the beginning of the Democratic primary contest, we, my husband and I, designated Hillary and Barack as Democrat Lite and Democrat Liter, because of their lack of any real experience in governing. Neither of them have ever run a company, run a city, run a state, or spent much time in Congress [two years for Barack, one term for Hillary] . Their experience in the real world of governing people and organizations is Lite to non-existent.

We haven’t seen any need to change our minds over the ensuing contest. Now Obama is up against a Republican candidate who is vastly more experienced in commanding men, in passing legislation [some of which I don't agree with] and all the other techniques necessary to govern successfully. And he evidences painful proof of his courage and steadfastness under cruel and unrelenting pressure from enemies.

All of these qualities are necessary to a President in time of war. He’s not glamorous, not talented at soaring rhetoric as Obama is, or Slick Willie was but, fun as it is to listen to that rhetorical tap-dance, we want a President whom we can count on, when the missiles are threatening and madmen want to blow us up.
