Yeah. The right-wing framing machine is broken. Bush broke it. That's the best thing you can say about the end of the Bush Era--he successfully destroyed the most powerful political force our nation has ever seen: the ability of the far-right to control the framing of national discourse.
I'm watching the inauguration on CNN right now. Obama and Bush just walked out of the White House together and got in a car together. Our new guy just OOZES class, doesn't he? Also, does Cheney's appearance in a wheelchair mark his complete transformation into a comic book villain? IS he Dr. Strangelove?
