I can’t vouch for its authenticity, but according to this web report Harry ("Bush is a loser") Reid said the following over the weekend:

“This administration is drunk with power.”

Yep.

Bartender, I’ll have a Vodka Martini, straight up, please . . .

On a serious note, what’s getting completely overlooked by the Sabatos and the Cooks of the world (or perhaps is something about which they’re in deep denial) is that this country’s political cycles tend to last for decades.

And decades.

In other words, things are bound to get even *worse* for “Dirty Harry” and his ilk.

Ankle Biting Pundits points to quite an interesting choice of words to describe President Bush from Sebastian Malloy writing in the Washington Post.

I found this moving account of the funeral of Petty Officer James E. Suh at Froggy Ruminations, via Hugh Hewitt. If you can read this without getting a lump in your throat and tears in your eyes then you are one cold, empty shell. Those who know me will not be surprised that the story and pictures left me sobbing. As sad as the funeral for a hero is, it is also incredibly beautiful and inspiring to see the love and respect shown for him and to his family.

Marking a conundrum of leftist lunacy, here’s Reuters’ report of Scotland Yard’s and Russia’s respective outrages over ABC News’ disgusting reporting concerning the 7/7 bombing investigations and the Belsan atrocities.

Of course, don’t hold your breath waiting for ABC – or any other Marxist media outfit – to show raw footage of those doomed Americans jumping to their grisly deaths on 9/11. Nor will they be running retrospectives along with interviews of family members of the Khobar, Tanzania or Cole bombings.

For that might cause America finally to wake up.

And especially in light of their stunning political losses over the past 25 years – despite the reality coma into which they bludgeoned much of the country – the left-wing media simply cannot afford to be faced down by a cognizant, well-informed, and motivated U.S. populace.

For the media would be gone within a decade in that event . . . .
