That's what GWB did ... never answered the Left's ridiculous accusations about Iraq, Katrina, the housing crisis, etc. And look what the electorate did in 2008 ...
IMO, it's way past time to put a stake in the heart of the Marquis of Queensbury. The bastards on the Left are not the 'loyal opposition': they are the ENEMY. They never give up: the ends always justify the means. We call them out every chance we get, and fight to politically destroy them just as hard as they do against us.
I'm talking about savoring the victory mainly for the joy of poking the Left in the eye. That's a nice incidental result, certainly, but it turns into a distraction when we rest on our laurels because of it. We should be actively looking forward to undo ever MORE damage as soon as possible, building on this decision. The Left is hyperventilating, portraying this as a nightmare. Well, we need to fulfill their nightmare. We should encourage our conservative politicians to interpret this decision as broadly as possible, just as the Left would do.
