In a letter to supporters of the Republican National Committee, Chairman Mike Duncan accused liberal Democrats of being determined to “turn back every reform you helped helped President Bush achieve over the last six years.”
Is it true? Do we liberals really want to turn back every way in which the Bush Republicans have tried to reshape America over the last six years?
Well, one thing we’ve learned about the Republicans is that they have a downright awful time when things that they believed were true turn out not to be true at all. That’s happened to the Republicans a lot lately, and it’s hard on them.
So, it’s a relatively superficial reason, compared to a lot of those that we’ve compiled, but I’ll add this one to the list of 2008 reasons to elect a progressive President in 2008: Let the Mike Duncan and his Republican followers be right about just one thing. Let them be right when they say that we liberals want to turn back the terrible policies of George W. Bush. Vote progressive for President, and make it true.
