Yet another example of Repuglicans trying to look as though they'd done something in the last 2 years. Property rights, gay marriage and fictious news of an improved situation in Iraq all serve that purpose. The chorus of Republicans whistling past the graveyard sounds like the British POWs whistling "Colonel Bogey" in the final scenes of Bridge Over the River Kwai.
You know, reasonable people can disagree over gay marriage or the war in Iraq, but when you start attacking a President for supporting property rights, one of the most basic individual rights, predating even the U.S. constitution, you really start to look like, to put it kindly, an extremist.
I think it's clear that my post referred to the motivations of GOP congressional candidates not the property rights themselves. And when I write a clever analogy I can do without you hacking away at it.
