What a difference a decade makes

From the comments:

Back under Clinton, we were working toward getting universal health care AND free public junior-college education.

Six years later, under Bush, we're hoping we can hold on to habeus corpus.


And I also liked this post about the difference between liberals and conservatives -- for liberals ideas and politics are viewed and explored abstractly, for conservatives its part of their identity.

    Thanks for noticing. (Nice little blog you've got here.)

    The liberal/conservative thing comes from talking to conservatives - you may think you're having an abstract discussion, but cross some invisible line, and they can snap.

    It's interesting to observe it in action.
