Democrats want Bad Things to Happen to America

According to Dennis Prager's latest article. You see if the Economy goes south that's good for us. If the War in Iraq goes south, that's good for us. If Blacks and Hispanics feel tormented by racism, that's good for us.

Bad things for America are good for us. Apparently.

. . . what most Democrats want in their hearts is not the issue. The issue is that if Democrats want to win, they can do so only if bad things happen to America.

What Dennis Prager leaves out, naturally enough, is that Democrats have a very different idea about what policies and programs will improve America or harm America. I believe, for example, that President Bush's programs and policies are bad for America and will hurt America.

Similarly I know that he and Hannity and Rush and others believe that if Democrats regain power we will do things that will be bad for America - and they will be watching to see if our plans do that. In a sense they will be planning on our failure, not because they hate America or are immoral opportunists, but because they legitimately believe our plans are bad for America.

But I suppose it's easier and more fun to just assert that Democrats want America to fail.
