Audacity of Truth
Whiner-in-Chief:
"[W]hether the grumbling is about Republicans on Fox or bloggers in pajamas, there's a word for what the president and his aides are doing. That word is "whining."

The filibuster “compromise”
I have to say I don’t like it. Not even the very well reasoned John Podhoretz can convince me otherwise.
