"...moral vanity has always been one of the president's besetting sins."
This is from an editorial this week in an opinion journal. And this: "He entered the national stage, after all, by implicitly placing himself apart from those other conservatives who were not, like him, 'compassionate." And finally: "...it can lead to a dangerously distorted view of reality."

These views of Bush did not come from the "liberal media" but from the June 25, 2007 issue of "National Review." When the literate part of his base blows the whistle on him, it means that Bush is truly finished.

6. The republicans need to stop playing the "liberal media" card.
There is no such thing as the "liberal media". It doesn't exist. The entire was formulated by a fat asshole who takes way more oxycontin than he should.
