Tv Gives Everyone An Image,

Now He Is A Statesman, When What He Really Wants Is To Be What Most Reporters Are, Adult Delinquents.

The Democrats Often Seem Like The Not Republican Party, No More And No Less.

Mr. Bush Has Squandered The Hard-built Paternity Of 40 Years. But So Has The Party, And So Have Its Leaders. If They Had Pushed Away For Serious Reasons, They Could Have Separated The Party's Fortunes From The President's. This Would Have Left A Painfully Broken Party, But They Wouldn't Be Left With A Ruined Brand,- As They All Say, Speaking The Language Of Marketing. And They Speak That Language Because They Are Marketers, Not Thinkers. Not Serious About Policy. Not Serious About Ideas. And Not Serious About Leadership, Only Followership.

I Love Eulogies. They Are The Most Moving Kind Of Speech Because They Attempt To Pluck Meaning From The Fog, And On Short Order, When The Emotions Are Still Ragged And Raw And Susceptible To Leaps.

I Do Not Know What The Democratic Party Spent, In Toto, On The 2004 Election, But What They Seem To Have Gotten For It Is Barack Obama. Let Us Savor.
