Not factually true, but funny and amusing.
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.
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.
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.
You can sum this article up thusly:"It's all about politics, and Karl Rove is the real brains behind the puppet."
And of course, the Left still doesn't get it. IF, big *IF*, it was all about politics, then Bush would be nominating moderates to the federal bench, rather than nominating fire-breathing conservatives (e.g. Pryor, Estrada, Owens) who drive the Left nuts.
You don't "co-opt" your opposition's positions by nominating their ideological enemies to the bench. No, such actions will instead rally your opposition to take uniform stands (e.g. filibusters).
But that's far too complicated to explain to any Ph.D'd Lefty that you might have the unpleasantness to meet on the street.
So much for the "it's all about politics" nonsense, then. Bush's federal judge nominations clearly debunk that theory.
And if Rove is such the behind-the-scenes genius, why is it that Bush hasn't flubbed up in public?
Time and time again the Left has told us that Dubya was so dumb that he couldn't handle foreign politics or manage to control foreign leaders.
Yet when have we seen a foreign "leader" roll over Bush?!
Thus, the lie that Rove is the brains is easily disproven by observing that it is Bush who wins each time he meets face to face with foreign leaders, not the other way around. Let's face it, Rove can't be around all the time, and he can't tell Bush what to say to those leaders when it is mano-e-mano, so it has to be that Bush is winning against those diplomats on his own.
But that ruins the cozy little fantasy world that liberals have crafted for themselves. They have to believe that Bush is dumb, as their worldview depends upon Bush and his ideas being all wrong.
Frickin' DUH! What administration doesn't do this? Amateurs do not get to the White House.
The article does seem a bit paranoid, but the fact that this Administration is taking a jackhammer crew and wrecking ball to the Democratic foundation is dean on. IMHO, I think they should use someting more metaphorically extreme - say C4?
Bush and Rove are trying to build a Republican majority for the ages, one that will last. That is what all administrations do, despite what this Dem Dumbo wants us to believe. The bottom line of his argument is that it is a bad thing for the Republicans to try to dismantle the Democrat organized institutions like the Teachers Union that feed off the Government and support the Democrat Party. The trial lawyers are in the same group. The simple fact that these political links exist doesn't mean that they are somehow God given and immortal. They were put together for political gain and they can be justifiably dismantled for the same reason.
How do spell sour grapes?
Nah, need something stronger.

I will simply add that this political "analysis" belongs filed in what may already be your most oversized computer folder. That folder would be appropriately titled:
