I believe this guy appears in that Fox News Watch show on FNC. I thought it was a bit paranoid, but amusing.

Funny, Bush has done more to cut the legs off of the UN and world governance than any other President and none of this is popular with the average voter. Most people ignorantly support things like Kyoto and World Courts, but Bush couragously killed both of these despite the politics. To think Bush is more political than say Clinton is ridiculous. Clinton ran every idea through a focus group to see how it would play politically.
To: IoCaster
none since Nixon has seemed so ruthless in meting out punishments as this one.So I guess it doesn't count when Clinton sicced the IRS against so many of his opponents. What a bunch of histrionics!! So W doesn't care at all about tort reform, school vouchers, foreign policy, or any other item, except how it can hurt Dems!! Nice cynical attitude, bud. That is exactly what Clinton did. He had one major goal, and that was to get re-elected. That is why he finally signed welfare reform. And that is why he has no real legacy except that he was the only two-term Dem Pres in a long time. That is his only legacy, besides the stained dress and the rest of the corruption.
It is so funny to see how hysterical these Dems are getting when they are actually contemplating that their party is falling apart. I only wish that it was a real possibility. Like Rush says, Libs are the funniest when they are out of power, and get nutso.

RE #1
This article only reveals that Democrats fear a possible pargadigm shift which will leave them out in the cold for decades, just as Republicans had been for 4 decades. Now they call it a dismantling of the two-party system. It is actually the dismantling of the New Left.
The New Left figure that the "washed-up and impotent" Republicans lie on the ground and keep taking their hits. They can't imagine the Pubbies would bite back.
I can't imagine their hyperbole if Republicans dismantle the two-party system for real.

It's just like democrats to think it's all about them...

I agree with much of this. What I'm seeing is a superficiality of goals equal to that of winning a high school football game, with no other depth of purpose. This is the shallowest administration in 40 years until one goes back to the JFK period, which was approximately equal.

Bush came to the White House with some very well defined ideas and most were solidly conservative (not foreign policy)- even more so than his father!

Somebody's scared of tort reform because it might slightly defund the radical left.

Every administration tilts decisions to reward friends and hurt enemies, though none since the days of Warren G. Harding has been as zealous in delivering largess to supporters and none since Nixon has seemed so ruthless in meting out punishments as this one. LOL. Sure Vince's widow agrees. I guess this guy did a Rip Van Winkle thing during the Clinotn years.
He still does carry the "no gravitas" torch by informing us know that Carl is running the country. To accuse that our politics are not based on principals but on getting the donors is reeeealy calling the kettle black. Too funny.
