Despicable quote by Grover Norquist
<snip>

Democrats will only become acceptable, declared Grover Norquist, the president of Americans for Tax Reform, once they “are comfortable in their minority status.” He added, “Any farmer will tell you that certain animals run around and are unpleasant, but when they’ve been fixed, then they are happy and sedate.”

2. His ilk definitely feel castrated about now...
If that's any consolation. What a burden, for them and US, that Atlas like load of arrogance.

I used to use that in my sig line to remember always what we're up against. I look forward to watching him sweat under oath in hearings. Unless he slips in his bathtub.

7. I have so enjoyed free Times Select this week.
Paul Krugman is my hero and I am glad he is giddy. Check out Maureen Dowd's op-ed yesterday -- it is great.
