… Victor Davis Hanson may have been writing in answer to Pajamas Media Question #1. I’m a tad skeptical but… who could have done it better?

1. Buddy Larsen:The man sure tells how the cow ate the cabbage, doesn’t he? Nice, lean run-thru of the high points of a recent string of MSM’s hands-in-cookie-jar low points that not a person alive would have believed possible, just a few short years ago. Was it Florida 2000 that made those people crazy ‘r somethin’?

May 30, 2005 - 4:19 am 3. Terrye:I think the most amazing thing is the ability of so many both within and withut to not notice the failings of the media. It is like, lies? what lies?
These are the people who set themselves up as judge jury and executioner for peasants and presidents alike and they are totally unstrung at the notion that some of us consumers ain’t buying it anymore.

These utopian liberals became unglued by President Bushís victory. They rightfully sensed that their power was slipping away. The situation is only getting worse. Republicans have captured the presidency, US Senate, and House of Representatives. The current White House occupant will almost certainly get his preferred choices for the US Supreme Court approved. Lastly, the odds are that the Democrats will be crushed in the November 2006 elections. I see little reason to disagree with John Micklethwait and Adrian
Wooldridgeís thesis in their The Right Nation that Americans are becoming more conservative.
May 30, 2005 - 8:39 am 5. Buddy Larsen:The counter argument is that the culture war being fought wasn’t even on the nation’s mind a short few decades ago. Not to be pessimistic, but it’s to be hoped and prayed that the right is not just winning the odd rear-guard skirmish.
