 No Time For Pussies

Jeff Goldstein over at Protein Wisdom (an arch-conservative, but often hysterically funny blog) has been rightly mocking the bipartisan calls for “healing" because he knows that the Republicans whipped our asses.

We don’t need “healing,” we need sane policy. If the Democrats aren’t willing to fight for what they know is right—war requires justification, economic justice requires progressive taxation, homosexual relationships deserve recognition, women’s rights and the rest of what the party holds as central to its mission of protecting the weak from the powerful—they will have earned the electoral rejection that they will certainly face in 2006, 2008 and thereafter.

Cass Sunstein sounds the alarm for the party, and you should watch the commercial (or, more accurately, click on the commercial and then surf in another browser for a while) to read his essay in Salon.
