Another call for Dems to "reform..." Gag me with a spoon...

(joan vennochi in the boston globe accomplishes the anatomically spectacular feat of putting it where the sun doesn't shine...)
It is time for Democrats to stop moaning about John Roberts and John Bolton and start doing something productive -- such as figuring out how to win elections.

Even though Democrats continue to resist the outcome, George W. Bush won the 2004 presidential contest. His reelection triggered a time-honored cliche: To the victor, go the spoils. Bush selected a Supreme Court nominee and an ambassador to the United Nations who reflect his philosophy. Any Democratic president would do the same.

i am unbelievably sick of reading shit like this... the part that this kind of crap completely ignores is that it isn't about winning elections or that the dems would take the same tack if they were in office... it's about being continually appalled at the actions of the most evil regime in american history and, quite possibly, given the power exerted by the u.s., in the history of the world... granted, it's not the blatant evil of a saddam but it's certainly more insidious, the ramifications run much deeper, and they will be with us for an unthinkably long time... get your head out of your ass, joan... the dark forces are at play here and you're wanting us to go back to business as usual...
