Someone check if E.J. Dionne is still alive.
The Washington Post columnist was on NPR's "Some Things Considered" Wednesday night already sounding suicidal about the reign of conservative terror he fears is coming in President Bush's second term.
Voicing the concerns of millions of distraught liberals, Dionne worried that President Bush - a partisan ideologue he says deliberately ran a mean and divisive campaign that has cynically polarized the country - is going to claim a policy mandate despite his slim 51 percent victory over John Kerry.
Dionne didn't break down in tears or anything. But he was whining that the president had cynically exploited moral and cultural issues like abortion and gay marriage to win the votes of millions of nutballs on the Christian and NASCAR right.

Have you EVER heard any republican WHINE like these disgusting, clueless, evil democrats? STFU, thank you very much.
Wouldn't Robert Bork make an excellent next Lord Chief Justice? One could always dream...
Nice comb-over E.J.
Rush did research on this in his show last week. Sure enough, Clinton has two "mandates" according to the liberal liars, oops I meant commentator/spiners.
Why am I not surprised?
God bless Rush Limbaugh.
BTTT
USA Today also had the famous headline "LANDSLIDE!" the day after Clinton won with 43% of the vote in 1992.
I'm getting sick and tired of these liberals framing Bush's victory as some sort of religious Jihad. You don't have to be religious...or even Republican, to have moral values. And moral values go beyond what liberals only seem to describe as Gay rights and abortion. Heck, the fact that the liberal mecca of Oregon voted down Gay marriage is an indication that there are more than just "religious" Republicans who have these concerns. These people still don't get it.
Whining is what liberals do. That is their main characteristic....whining
Almost everyone gets what they deserve, in any case.
By clearly stating where he stood on the issues. My God! What a horrible and unfair way to run a campaign!
To EJ, all I can say is:

The cover of Time magazine the week after Clinton was elected in 1992 with 43% of the vote:
How I enjoyed the McLaughlin Group.
McLaughlin looked like he was ready to cry. Lawrence O'Donnell's neck vein was popping as he proclaimed the blue states should secede.
O'Donnell claims that the blue states pay most of the taxes and the red states consume the most government services. I'm in a blue state (condolences gratefully accepted), and I think most of us around here who actually pay the taxes voted for W.
FR is as good a place to start as any..!!
FRegards,
This is a great article and a good post. Bill Steigerwald is spot-on; liberals deserve every damn thing we get. I live in NY. I wanted Bush to win, but I voted for Badnarik in protest of big government policies that have been espoused by Democrats and Republicans for years. The NYS GOP is worse than the Dem parties of other states.
I'm glad Bush won and my prayer is that without having to face re-election, he can be free to stack the courts with strict Constitutionalists, get to work on privatizing Social inSecurity, and can actually shrink government instead of growing it faster than Clinton.
The Dems are going to come out of this strong. Look at the Deaniacs, they promised to go home and build a nationwide grassroots liberal organization. If you think the amount of $$$ poured into 507's was huge this year, wait until 2008. We've got a lot of work to do in terms of winning hearts and minds for free markets and small governments.
Let's stay on the move and we'll have our boots on their throats in 2008!!!
