I know I have been guilty of a running gag accusing Best of the Web of getting all its best ideas by plagiarizing my blog (see "
Best of the Web Imitates Me XXII"), but today I just want to praise them.
They have put in nice, clear words, the same moral that I put in my "
Obama's Christmas Carol - Part III", as well as the running theme of most of my blog. To wit:
If you like the Obama agenda, you probably wish he were more like LBJ.
If not, you can be thankful (at least when it comes to domestic policy)
that he's such a greenhorn. And if you've found yourself in strong
disagreement with any president in the past 40 years, consider that
there may be a wisdom in electing men who aren't masters of Congress.
Or, as I tend to phrase it, government changes hands, and whatever power you give to "our guys" will eventually fall into the hands of "their guys". So, unless you would be willing to have it wielded against you, you might want to think twice about the weapon you place into the hands of your party.
