For a less cool-headed take on the subject you can read what I wrote after Maxine Waters said tea party protesters should be investigated for racist views.

Here’s a little taste:

...There’s the enormous I-should-have-had-a-V8! moment as the mainstream press collectively thwacks itself in the forehead, realizing it blew it again. The New York Times — which, according to Wall Street analysts, is weeks from holding editorial-board meetings in a refrigerator box — created the journalistic equivalent of CSI-Wasilla to study every follicle and fiber in Sarah Palin’s background, all the while treating Obama’s Chicago like one of those fairy-tale lands depicted in posters that adorn little girls’ bedroom walls. See there, Suzie? That’s a Pegasus. That’s a pink unicorn. And that’s a beautiful sunflower giving birth to a fully grown Barack Obama, the greatest president ever and the only man in history to be able to pick up manure from the clean end.

If that’s not good then I don’t know what is.

I wrote something about this issue the other day, but of course Jonah’s is vastly superior.

Times. His latest piece looks at how President Bush may be judged by history. He concludes that historians will probably not judge the Bush administration as being particularly out of the mainstream as compared with past administrations.

I agree with Goldberg on this one. President Bush has certainly made some controversial decisions, but the picture painted by the radical left is one of a lawless, rogue administration. Like Goldberg, I don’t think historians will reach those same conclusions. As Jonah rightly points out, if Iraq ends up becoming a stable Democracy then history will have a very different view of President Bush.
