DIGBY HAS A GREAT POINT

On the Stephanopoulos bobble head roundtable this morning, Cokie Roberts raised the baton and started the drumbeat: the Democrats risk moving waaaaay too far to the left and that is going to be a biiiiig problem for them "just like it was in Vietnam." Yes, she said it out loud. And David Gergen agreed whole heartedly. Does anyone recall these gasbags saying that Bush was moving so far to the right with his monarchic, fundamentalist, shock and awe presidency that it was going to be a biiiig problem for them? I must have missed all those warnings. Now that he's at 28% and the conservatives are on the run after having proven that there really is a limit to how far the crazed radical wingnuts can go, they are still warning about the Democrats moving too far to the left.



Yup and Pres. Fredo can veto expanded stem-cell research because he needs to pander the minority view of the Religious Right but do they ever say that he's going too far? Fredo can also assert previously unheard of powers as a "war president" yet we never hear that he's becoming too authoritarian.
