Carol Platt Liebau had a post on Sunday, 1/29, referring to Debra Burlingame's article in the Wall Street Journal. She pulled out the following quote which I thought was very good:
The mantra of civil-liberties hard-liners is to "question authority"--even when it is coming to our rescue--then blame that same authority when, hamstrung by civil liberties laws, it fails to save us.
I thought of another way to phrase it:
The mantra of the Democrats is to "question Republicans" -- even when they are coming to our rescue -- then blame the Republicans when, hamstrung by the Democrats' activities, they fail to save us.
(I would have linked directly to Carol's post but the permalink there does not seem to be working.)
