DUMBER THAN DUMB

How can Nicholas Kristof be so DUMB? Here's how: "Time To Get Religion," his column this morning, in which he offers the Democrats four suggestions for future success:

• Don't be afraid of religion.
• Pick battles of substance, not symbolism.
• Accept that today, gun control is a nonstarter.
• Hold your nose and work with President Bush.

Call me an effete-pinko-commie-atheist-liberal-antiwar idjit, but who wants that kind of success? Did the red-white-and-blue-religious-conservative-right-wing-Republican-neocon-hawk matadors achieve success through compromise?

And anyway, nothing the Democrats do -- from bending their principles to outright appeasement -- will gain them an inch with Republicans, who see their election victory as a diktat from, by, and for the people that gives them the right to rule with impunity.

Postscript: Smarter and funnier than me.
