WALL STREET JOURNAL Repukes Republican Congress!!!!!

Wall Street Journal rebukes Republican Congress



America's largest newspaper and quintessential conservative editorial page blasted Republicans in Congress on Friday in an editorial titled "Republicans at Bay," RAW STORY has learned.

The editorial (paid-restricted), which hammers Republicans for failing to produce anything of substance in the 2005 session of Congress, may be a troubling sign for Republicans, as the Journal's editorial page leans heavily to the right.

The Journal also recently turned on House Majority Leader Tom DeLay (R-TX), who has been mired in ethics scandals; while they noted that they believe DeLay has faced unfair criticism from Democrats, they said he was tainted with the odor of the Beltway.

"Americans have learned to expect little from Congress, and by that standard the 109th version controlled by Republicans has met expectations," the editorial begins. "On the other hand, anyone who hoped that the GOP would make something of its historic governing opportunity is bound to be disappointed so far."

1. Regardless of WSJ's Editorial Page, when they go after
something it's finished. Their reporting overall is the best.

4. To summarize,
our (internationalist) corporatist overlords aren't getting (in their idea of a timely fashion, at least) all of the loot that they expected (and paid for).

Fuck 'em... flunkies and overlords both.

6. The WSJ is extremely conservative
Even they acknowledge the poor leadership of Bush.
