Out Of Touch, Denial & Treason

It's amazing and also admittedly enjoyable (schadenfreude=pleasure derived from the misfortunes of others) to read all the stories and blogs by stunned democrats. The map showing a mostly red geography for Bush when granularity is on a county scale shows just how out of touch the liberals really are. Their complete denial, much like that of the biased media talking heads is truly incomprehensible to me. Check these articles for comments from defeated liberals:

San Jose Mercury News
Chicago Tribune

Then there are the angry left which are easy to find in blogger land....amazing that these ingrates think they are intellectually superior and also more tolerant than the majority (Bush supporters) when their rhetoric is diametrically opposed to that notion and down right treasonous. To wish for the killing or suffering of fellow Americans or anyone for that matter is vile. For just one example check this poor excuse for a human being...kos and also his agreeable commenters!

well you do ask for a lot....but I would agree those are all good things to accomplish...however those are not good reasons alone to blindly choose the other party regardless of the person in question. In this era its clear that like me much of our country wants a certain moral core in our leader. We also want someone willing to be on the offensive with respect to our security...to not wait for an imminent threat before taking action against evil. Those two things trump all those things you mention and the proof that the majority agree just happened Tuesday.

Scott who are you asking? Me? If so not sure where you got the idea that I don't judge or hold Bush accountable for all sort of things. Exactly what? That's my business, I don't care to lay them out for you. The sentence you wrote " I don’t think it says much for Bush if he can’t be held accountable for terrorism, weapons-of-mass-destruction, abortion, gay-marriage, taxes or the economy!" is way too loaded. I suppose you believe Bush actually knew all the intelligence was wrong and decided to go to war anyway? Just how is Bush accountable for gay marriage or abortion? Taxes he can definitely have an effect on...the economy overall is more complicated but if certain outside influences stay at bay he can. It's an entire package, but its also (like this time) possibly heavily weighted on one particular thing. In the end the dems out out of touch with too many people across America...I think a lot of people looked at the people who made the most noise on both sides and most (even if they didn't vote for Bush) liked those noise makers less on the left than on the right. The momentum is on the right and it very well swing even further in 4 years. While I'm ok with a women president a big portion of the center of the country is likely not so put Hillary up in 2008 and then say Rudy on our side and its a blow out for Rudy.
