Political and social observations from two aspiring hedgehogs who love the Isaiah Berlin essay.
Jonah Goldberg in National Review Online:
[W]hile I would love to be proven wrong, I can’t help but think the chances of all the fun domestic stuff Bush was working — on tax reform, Social Security reform — will now be sacrificed in order to make sure every street corner in New Orleans is outfitted with a soft ice-cream machine and an ergonomic moving sidewalk.I would love to see him proven wrong, too.

"Facts are stubborn things; and whatever may be our wishes, our inclinations, or the dictates of our passion, they cannot alter the state of facts and evidence."

Jonah is right on! The goal of the left and the media (a redundancy) was to goad Bush into micromanaging these disaters and get him away from instituting his agenda. Obstruct and delay until they get power back. They are better at what they do than the good guys because they are not held back by truth, decency, manners, and character issues!
