Fightin' back

Like many left-of-center clipmonkeys, DC clipmonkey has been in a state of depression since the election. He was pretty certain Kerry would win (despite his lack of affection for Mr. Kerry). Since the election, DC clipmonkey has had a hard time reading the news because he would prefer to remain ignorant than watch the systematic dismantling of a once-great nation.

However, during the past few weeks, DC clipmonkey has been heartened to see folks on the left show some cajones. Whether giving John Bolton a beat-down, slapping around Tom DeLay, ripping the Ethics rules changes by House Republicans, or blasting Bush's Social Security plan, the minority party in Congress is showing some signs of life. And the Republicans seem to be responding on ethics and Social Security, if only a bit.
