The left’s need for an Emmanuel Goldstein-type hate figure even when they have virtual total control over the government is pretty pathetic.

It does show a certain imbalance. You would think that, after claiming complete control of everything with the current cast of characters in place, the left would like things the way they are. Righties have their little lonely talk radio, and lefties have everything else. That the official position of the White House political operation has been systematically attack and charachiture individuals just shows the nastiness in their hearts.

They’re haters. They play on hate. They attempt to thrive on it. Bush is gone, so who’s the next target?
