Are Democrat pundits from another planet? (McCain, Barack Obama, leader, economy)

[Little-Acorn]

A wonderful summation of the "opinions" rendered lately by various leftist fanatics, in their attempts to explain away Barack Obama's exploding spending and mediocre results, as well as the President's dwindling popularity.

Planet Enron
Some columnists are not of this world.

This description of Barack 'Someone Else's Mess" Obama is so far removed from reality that there are only two possible explanations: (1) Krugman is trolling for links, or (2) He is from another planet. We're going to assume it's the latter, because trolling for links would be beneath the dignity of a Nobel Prize winner.

Interesting read but Democrats who have been taken in by the progressives wouldn't agree with me. About the funniest thing I saw in it came from the pen of David Brooks, the al Times of New York, writer who is considered the token conservative among the columnists there. He doesn't usually sound like he is very conservative, but these words amazed me, whatever he is.

In many ways, Barack Obama has lived up to his promise. He has created a thoughtful, pragmatic administration marked by a culture of honest and vigorous debate.

Honest and vigorous debate, he says. I read this just minutes after I heard Juan McCain talking about how the GOP Senators should have erected a tent and sold Persian rugs from it. Other Republican leaders complained, at the same time, about no debate in either house. Of course, those who think that being the majority, Democrats, should be the only ones debating and voting in either house. It just gets better and better and I hope some of THEM come in here to talk, but don't think they will.

Good read.
I have seen some CD posts that could give those quotes a run for their money.
Here is my fave:

As an aside, Van Hollen also has this charming comment in explaining why he thinks Democrat Martha Coakley will win today's special election: "Why would you hand the keys to the car back to the same guys whose policies drove the economy into the ditch and then walked away from the scene of the accident?"

Wow, just wow.
