    Victor Davis Hanson Ping ! 

       Let me know if you want in or out

[IronJack]

Democratic ideology and rhetoric have not evolved from the 1960s, although the vast majority of Americans has

In plain, simple words, VDH boils down all the argle-bargle about the Democrats'incredible shrinking relevance.

Let's hope they don't listen ...

[PGalt]

OUTSTANDING! VDH is OUTSTANDING!

But if you listen to Dr. Dean and his class venom, it hardly seems comparable with how he lives or how he was brought up

And my question is: Have there been any Dr. Dean sightings?

I keep reading what he has to say, but still have not seen him being interviewed live on any of the TV shows.

Why is he in hiding?

In order to make this true, the Republicans need to get off the pot and lead. They need to ram the judges down the Dems collective throats. They need to ram Bolton through. For all the talk you hear of people loving the underdog, what poeple love the most is a winner and someone who leads. And a strong Republican needs to come out and stand tough on illegal immigration. That alone - IMHO - will curry enough respect and votes from non-Hispanics - to win the day.

concerned that their poor therapeutic education will leave them impover

Funny, yet sad, too.

The Democrats have morphed from the party of the common man into the party of rich elitists. They have as much in common with the country as the Carringtons have in common with the Joneses.

(Denny Crane: "Sometimes you can only look for answers from God and failing that... and Fox News".)

What a great article this is. VDH sums it all up very nicely.

[A Balrog of Morgoth]

He's a fricken genius.

Good man. Glad he's on our side.

[astounded]

Ouch! A finely crafted, scathingly true piece. If only it could be printed in some MSM outlets.

Better put some ice on that, democrats...

[Mo1]

And my question is: Have there been any Dr. Dean sightings?

Nope .. Howard "The Coward" Dean is still hiding from the Media

[johnb838]

If the republicans keep pandering and posturing and not believing their own rhetoric, the rat's may get a chance to pull victory from the jaws of defeat. Again.

They cannot learn.....they lament, will the unwashed EVER learn?!!

IMHO these liberal/progressive columnists are as out of touch with reality as jihadists themselves...what we have is an elite upper crust in the US, educated beyond utility and reason by an Ivy League whose educational objectives are essentially described by UNESCO- http://www.crossroad.to/articles2/IBO.htm When this elite sees and experiences a wholesale rejection by society (Red/Blue state conflict) of the cultural and academic paradigm they've paid to buy into -both financially and personally-the rejection acquires apocalyptic overtones

Because the comedic impression of Rush Limbaugh snorting nose candy doesn't play well outside the fever swamps of the DNC.

[G.Mason]

Ping bump!

The more I read Victor Davis Hanson, the more I tremble that the Dimocrats may also read him and begin to understand. Then I wake up. ;)

[Ichneumon]

Whatever we think of George Bush, we know he would do something real — and just what that something might be frightens into hesitation — and yes, fear — many of those who would otherwise like to try something pretty awful.

Exactly!!

[Rummyfan]

Bump for later read.

[randita]

As Rush asserts, the Democrat party has been hijacked by their kook fringe. All they stand for now is criticizing and obstructing Bush's agenda.

Like most of VDH, this is a brillant piece of work. I sent this article off to my dad. He is an AARP member and a defender of the status quo.

I see the under 35 crowd that he is referring to at my work. We had a really sharp lady recently leave the company and move out of California because it was too expensive for her and her husband to live and own a house.
