Mr. Spock with a beard?


There are so many news stories today hammering on liberals that I feel I’ve entered an alternate universe. Here’s a partial listing starting with the New York Times criticizing Democrats for violating campaign laws – it’s Bizarro world I tell ya!

New York Times editorial: “Soft Money Slinks Back” – “We sympathize with the Democrats' desire to level the playing field. But they do not have to subvert the law to do it.”

Boston Globe: “Kerry no hero in ex-crewman’s eyes

But did she go duck hunting? – “Ginsburg is linked to liberal group - Justice's affiliation raises questions on her impartiality

The Democrats aren’t giving back the cash they got from Martha Stewart.

Peggy Noonan on Senator Splunge: “Mr. Kerry has a structural weakness on the stump. It's John Kerry.”

Proving once again that there was no chance of getting the United Nations (or France) behind the liberation of Iraq, Opinion Journal has a long piece on “The Oil-for-Food Scandal.”

David Broder answers: “Would FDR run those 9/11 ads?” with this quote: “What you learn from such an exercise is that Bush is a piker compared with FDR when it comes to wrapping himself in the mantle of commander in chief.”

The New Republic excoriates Tim Robbins.

The WashPost runs an editorial called “Flip-Flop, Hedge and Straddle” that’s critical of President Bush but more so of (guess who?): “Mr. Kerry has a similar problem for a different reason: It's not always clear what, if anything, he's committed to….Where are the bedrock principles that would guide him in office?”

Meanwhile, George Will expertly defends No Child Left Behind in “A Genuine Education President.”

What a beautiful morning.
