GWB and Laura quietly visit the wounded at Fort Hood. While Barry and Michele, neither of whom have much love for the country, much less its military, and show it time and again, continue to par-tay.

The real state of the union

Posted on January 23, 2007 | Comments Off on The real state of the union

Conservative commentator Jules Crittenden has some fun with the speech Bush ought to give:

"So what is the best thing I can do tonight? I can tell you the truth. What none of you want to hear. What you’ve been stopping your ears to. The ugly truth. The State of the Union is a disaster. I did my best, but I made mistakes, and my best wasn’t good enough. We went to war without building up our army, and now, I am trying to make up for that. But that is not the disaster. The disaster is that you, Congress and the American people, do not care to fight."

Which would be funny if it wasn’t so true.

White lines and dead armadillos

That’s what onetime Texas ag commissioner Jim Hightower says are in the middle of the road. But fav columnist Peggy Noonan says the center is where the Reps and Dems need to be, especially the Dems.

"Can they go down the center, or will radicalism of various sorts erupt and gain sway? No one knows. The Democrats don’t know. The answer is going to help shape America’s future political history. And it will help shape George Bush’s. If the Democrats are radical, he will look more reasonable, not only in the eyes of the public but of history."

The Hightower wing prefers radicalism to imitating armadillos. But at the expense of elevating Bush?
