Kristol / Washington Post Bush Will Win

Why Bush Will Be A Winner
By William KristolSunday, July 15, 2007

I suppose I'll merely expose myself to harmless ridicule if I make the following assertion: George W. Bush's presidency will probably be a successful one.
Let's step back from the unnecessary mistakes and the self-inflicted wounds that have characterized the Bush administration. Let's look at the broad forest rather than the often unlovely trees. What do we see? First, no second terrorist attack on U.S. soil -- not something we could have taken for granted. Second, a strong economy -- also something that wasn't inevitable.

NY Post: Left Media Catastrophe Almost Here!

The dominoes continue to fall as self-preservation dominates the game. The joke is going to see how revisionist history unfolds as the Far Left, having achieved it's goal of castration of a president and the collapse of America in Iraq, tries to blame the massacres and danger that will follow all on George Bush. We are on the verge of entering one of the bleakest points in American history as we hand the terrorists receive the biggest boost we could ever give them.

This is not Viet Nam. This is a war we have little choice in ending and it is going to be playing at a theater near us very soon.

PANICKY POLITICS
POPULISM PUSHING U.S. POLITICIANS INTO PATHETIC POLICIES

By GERARD BAKER

July 15, 2007 -- DEMOCRACY, Winston Churchill famously observed, is the worst form of government ever devised - except for all the others. Well, he was right about the first part.

In America these days, democracy is living down to its reputation - producing sticking-plaster solutions to epochal challenges, indulging the worst populist instincts of its voters, throwing up demagogic leaders unworthy of the job and rejecting those of true courage.
