... to shut the fuck up?
I'm pretty thick skinned when it comes to Times columnists. I can read Safire, Brooks and even Friedman without ranting, but this last one just sent me over the edge.
It was trouble from the beginning.
If Democrats want to know how to win again, they have a model. It's the British Labor Party.
...
Tony Blair and another M.P., Gordon Brown, dragged the party away from socialism, unions, nuclear disarmament and anti-Americanism. Together they created "New Labor," which aimed for the center and aggressively courted Middle Britain instead of trying to scare it. The result is that since 1997, Mr. Blair and Labor have utterly dominated Britain.

Yep, Tony Blair, craven lapdog of Bush and the model of Kistof's democratic party.
Hitting my head against my desk seemed to dull the pain.
But it got better.
