The Weekly Standard: Threat or Menace?

The writers at the Weekly Standard seem to be intent on conclusively proving their magazine is nothing but a right wing echo chamber, where different columnists write virtually the same article again and again. This week, the esteemed Terry Eastland warns us that the Democrats are boiling over with partisan rage (but that never happens to the sensible souls of the ever-rational GOP). Oddly enough, I remember that David Brooks wrote a nearly identical piece only a few weeks ago, called "Democrats Go Off the Cliff". In each article, we're told the Democratic base has become very angry because the party is completely out of power and that this anger endagers any possible return to power because it frightens moderates. Seems like the Standard is a haven for incest of the mind, with hereditary disorders becoming increasingly severe, untill their blood can barely carry oxygen and they turn blue or something like that.

What a bunch of hacks. They'll never make it on to the B of P/
