Why We Fight

by Andrew Klavan

This is by way of a friendly response to the estimable Jay Nordlinger, Senior Editor at the likewise estimable National Review.  Jay wrote a strong column yesterday openly saying what I’ve been hearing many conservatives express tacitly ever since the election.  Reflecting on the media’s disgraceful distortion of the characters of George W. Bush, Dick Cheney and Sarah Palin, he wrote:

“It seems to me that the Left has won:  utterly and decisively.  What I mean is, the Saturday Night Live, Jon Stewart, Bill Maher mentality has prevailed.  They decide what a person’s image is, and those images stick.  They are the ones who say that Cheney’s a monster, W.’s stupid, and Palin’s a bimbo.  And the country, apparently, follows.”
