Today was such a good day that it actually led me to watch a little Fox News just so I could gloat a little bit. I was rewarded by seeing Rick Santorum looking shell-shocked and dumbfounded that the president had been able to reel off such a succession of major victories. As for Fox News, they are left arguing that the big winner today was Tom Coburn because he was able to strip two billion dollars away from the emergency responders who fell ill after breathing glass for months while they dug up the remains of the nearly 3,000 people who died in Manhattan on 9/11.
We still got shellacked last November, and we still have a brutal political season coming next year. But we are riding high right now, and I don’t mind crowing about it.
Here’s Lindsey Graham:
“When it’s all going to be said and done, Harry Reid has eaten our lunch. This has been a capitulation in two weeks of dramatic proportions of policies that wouldn’t have passed in the new Congress.”
It wasn’t Harry Reid. It was President Obama. He’s sipping on Mitch McConnell’s juice box right now as Air Force One winds its way to Hawaii for the holidays.
