Intellectual Whining
Had a discussion with some friends who are staying over this weekend about the trouble with the Democratic Party.
Now I’m a very low level Democrat (a poll judge) and I’m so low that I don’t even get the newsletter but I try to stay informed on the party as best I can.
Yet the conversation reminded me of one of the major issues I’ve had in the last few months since the election.
Many on the left and even a few in the center have looked at the GOP with the sense of envy, hate and fear as they hold control of two of the three branches with the ability to take the third now with the retirement of Justice O’Connor.
This comes out in book after book, show after show, email after email and in the end it’s just intellectual whining that doesn’t do a thing.
We have become a national of analysts but not of doers. The too many good people have sat back and did nothing. The result is the government that we as a nation deserve.
