EMBRACE THE FAILURE

Following the attacks on Rush Limbaugh, David Harsanyi asks “Is it inherently unpatriotic or immoral to want to see a president fail?”

After eight years of seething hatred -- plenty of it deserved -- for George W. Bush, this brand of contrived indignation touches a new level of creative dishonesty.

[M]any of us are hoping that all those in power fail, because those in power have a grating habit of being annoyingly self-righteous, hopelessly corrupt, resolutely incompetent and completely apathetic about the freedoms that they have sworn to protect.

Embrace the failure. It's patriotic.

Nothing personal.
