The failures of the Bush administration — from Katrina to Iraq — are more than a matter of incompetence and cronyism. They are a matter of ideology. The administration’s abysmal performance is rooted in the set of conservative beliefs that are at the heart of its decision-making. Conservatism has failed, and will continue to fail, because it has a wrong view of how the world works.

Heh. I think that’s just a little bit too reality based, don’t you? Conservatism can never fail, it can only be failed. Down with Bush, all hail Saint Ronnie of Reagan.

But it’s good to see progressives make the case. It’s true, after all.
