Conservatives like Peggy Noonan have helped me maintain faith in conservatism in America. Good to see that conservatives don't have to be the slow folks clogging the right lane.
Today's morning news programs include the usual Sunday columnist\ presidential speech writers. The positive regard for President-Elect Obama is being strongly articulated by Republican writers. Peggy Noonan appears to be in love with Obama & can barely repress outright adulation. Same can be said for Pat Buchanan & his sister, Babe, David Brooks, David Gergen, George Will, etc. These conservative writers are as excited about Obama as Democrats [and some can argue that these conservatives are in-fact Democrats, now]. The praise is quite remarkable & unprecedented.
BTW, the scorn for President Bush is also noteworthy. Noonan even stated that our nation hasn't had a president for a long as Bush has been in power & Buchanan calls Bush the worst modern day American president.
Well, I understand what they're doing. The government is going all Dem. Let's face it -- Pelosi and Reid are revolting and lost causes. Pelosi has been mouthing off and trying to subjugate Obama. I'm GLAD the Republicans are getting behind Obama. Pelosi and Reid need to be marginalized for anything to get better and working with Obama is the way to do it. Obama's biggest threats seem to come from his own party.
Once again, we agree 100%. That is twice in one day! And we are pretty much at opposite ends of the political spectrum! See, Obama's message of unity is already working (Don't hit me!)
They're not "waking up." They were ALWAYS on the same page. Just didn't want the public to know it. Play into the left/right paradigm. Same coin, different side.

MEET THE NEW BOSS. SAME AS THE OLD BOSS.
MEET THE THE BOSS ... SPEAKS BETTER THAN THE OLD BOSS
The praise & strong admiration for Obama was in stark contrast to these conservative writer's disgust with President Bush. Looks like the real truth is coming out & many Republicans are publicly denouncing Bush & Cheney. But the real issue is that Obama is an intelligent man & these reasonable Republicans can't help feeling great that stupidity is being replaced with competence. Also, these writers trust President-Elect Obama whereas Bush has been a major embarrassment to intelligent Republicans.
I am a democrat and an Obama supporter and donor. Politicians are first and foremost politicians. They do what they think is politically expedient. Similar to the democrats supporting Bush early in the Iraq war dibacle, republicans are doing what they perceive will help them in the next election.
Bush/Cheney no doubt have all their stuff outta the WH by now --- I LOVE IT....Just, what 36 hours left for beavis/butthead
What's happening is that Republicans are joining the rest of the country in condemning Bush & Cheney. It's like the voice of the entire nation & world is demanding that the most hated American president go away forever & never show up again. Now the rejoicing starts with the new president & a bright future for our nation
