What next?
Can we take up a collection to buy the WaPo and fire these people?

Murray used to work for the WSJ. Is it any surprise she's got her head firmly up her ass?

OT but important
You're absolutely right, of course, Glenn. These people are pathetic.
But what's driving me out of lurker mode is this: I see no sense of alarm in the left/progressive blogosphere that Hillary is probably going to be our candidate. Hillary, who has never stood up to Bush in any way that matters. Shouldn't we stop her? How do we stop her?
It was clear 4 years ago that Dem primary voters don't have a clue on how to select an electable, or suitable, candidate. How can we turn the momentum to Edwards? Or Dodd, now that he has stepped up to the plate?
You, Digby, FDL, and others, seem strangely silent on this issue. And given our strange, front-loaded primary system, maybe soon it will be too late.
Why don't the other candidates have ads that point out that we have had a Bush or a Clinton in the number 1 or 2 spot for 27 years already? Isn't that enough?
If nominated, she is likely to lose. If elected, she is CERTAIN to trash our progressive values, if not on the domestic front, then surely on the foreign policy front.
Thoughts, anyone?

"Great Idea, Colonel Klink!"
"if you oppose us, you will lose"
These Democratic "strategists" and liberal pundits must all be as dumb as Howie Kurtz. Would the opposition really be looking out for you? Wouldn't the Republicans, if they really did want the Democrats to lose, keep quiet if the Democrats did something that would help the Republican cause? But instead, like Colonel Klink, the Democrats allow the Republican Col. Hogans to plant ideas in their little minds about what they ought to do.
Here's an idea for these "strategists": There is a reason the Republicans are warning you away from certain strategies. They fear them.

Speaking of unchanging scripts...
Ledeen in WSJ: "Victory Is Within Reach in Iraq"
No doubt Gen. David Petraeus and Lt. Gen. Raymond Odierno know all this ["this"=the success being seen all over Iraq]. It is, after all, their strategy that has produced the good news. Their reluctance to take credit for the defeat of al Qaeda and other terrorists in Iraq is due to the uncertain outcome of the big battle now being waged here at home. They, and our soldiers, fear that the political class in Washington may yet snatch defeat from the jaws of victory. They know that Iran and Syria still have a free shot at us across long borders, and Gen. Petraeus told Congress last month that it would not be possible to win in Iraq if our mission were restricted to that country.
Not a day goes by without one of our commanders shouting to the four winds that the Iranians are operating all over Iraq, and that virtually all the suicide terrorists are foreigners, sent in from Syria. We have done great damage to their forces on the battlefield, but they can always escalate, and we still have no policy to direct against the terror masters in Damascus and Tehran. That problem is not going to be resolved by sound counterinsurgency strategy alone, no matter how brilliantly executed.

apologies. I just should have said....
Thee who still are loyal to repub-dementia, need cute pig tails pinned to the hiney.
The Salon makes Far Lefty's goofy. I go. I don't understand. I'll never be quoted here, I hope. I'll never say another stupid thing.
I'll go for a ride in a booster seat in the back of a rural hillbilly pick-up truck. Turn computer off! Immediatly. Gads.

They just can't stop believing in fairies.
The beltway folks can't wrap their minds around the fact that most people hate George W. Bush. A lot of people I know--including old Republican ladies from Texas, triangulating goood old boys, libertarians--who turn purple when his name comes up. He isn't just disliked, he's despised. They know that Katrina and Iraq are going to be the real legacies of this president, and that they add up to a loss of American prestige.
But why should pundits see this? They live in the echo chamber of their own fairy stories. Bush was always a snarky frat boy, but it was a good contrast to Gore to say he was likable. He was never Churchill, but after 9/11 it was comforting to the traumatized rubes to say he was. The Iraq war couldn't be a disaster because they had spent so long cheerleading it as final proof that Republicans were better at keeping us safe than Democrats. These were the hooks that sold their newspapers and kept their ratings up. The idea that Democrats are weak on national security issues is another of their fireside tales, repeated nightly.
