A talk-radio station here this morning was saying this is "National Gloating Day." Ha. Enjoy it.
It was not a landslide, true. Kerry did get 55 million votes. There is still a large swath of the electorate that has very different values than the majority that voted for President Bush. But, it is abundantly clear that once again the liberal media and the snobs they agree with and huddle with at cocktail parties completely overlooked the enormous numbers of people for whom morality is a big issue.
And, the news this week just keeps getting better and better. Israeli media are reporting that Yassir Arafat is dead. Witch, witch, the ding-dong is dead! Farewell, you little troll. In his press conference just now, Bush said upon hearing the report from a questioner, "God rest his soul". Well, ok, that was probably the remark of a statesman, but the correct followup is "Good riddance". The Palestinians have a choice to make now.
Usually, when liberals lose an election, they tend to conclude that they just weren't angry enough, they weren't hateful enough, they weren't condescending enough. Well, like I said, here's hoping they continue with that genius analysis, because it only means more seats in Congress, more presidential victories, etc...
Now, something very important. Arlen Specter is in line to become the next chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee. What a joke that would be. Specter is a RINO (Republican In Name Only). In one of the truly baffling chapters of this campaign, Bush stumped for Specter against a more conservative Republican candidate in the primaries. Specter has been reported as saying Bush should be careful about what kind of judicial candiates he puts forth, especially for the Supreme Court. This is outrageous, especially coming only a day after the elections. Now, it is entirely possible the media is hyping a bogus story, to stir up trouble for the Republicans, but regardless, Specter is hostile to good conservative judges. He helped to torpedo Jduge Bork, after all.
Here's what you should do. Contact your Republican Senators, or Majority Leader Bill Frist, and urge them to work against Specter becoming chairman. It's not a done deal, there will be elections, so let's make our conservative voices heard. Specter as chairman on the heels of this great victory made possible in large part by evangelicals and conservatives would be a disaster. It'll be hard enough confirming good judges with the obstructionist Democrats, why put a roadblock like Specter in our own path?
