Faithful readers of Bitesfromedwin will remember one strand in particular, during the long buildup since all the way back to last January, up to Nov. 6's election:
U.S. Senator from Kentucky and Senate Minority Leader for the Republicans, Mitch McConnell,
known unaffectionately by his detractors as "The Turtle" -- Bitesfromedwin sometimes seemed to be the only voice outraged by McConnell's 2010 pronouncement that he saw his Number One job leading the Senate's G.O.P. to be making Barack Obama a 1-term president.
Well, finally, a prominent voice has picked up the Clarion Call.
REJOICE, AND BE GLAD IN IT: Thomas Friedman speaks out, on this very item.

TIME FOR BITESFROMEDWIN TO SHUT DOWN? MISSION ACCOMPLISHED?
HARDLY:
Yesterday, McConnell's counterpart in the House of Representatives, G.O.P.
Majority Leader John Boehner of Ohio, showed that Obama's victory on Tuesday made no difference to him. Lovely Republican defiance.
Will Congressional Republicans behave as they have since Jan. 2009?
On taxes, about deficits, about the national debt?
Don't cut taxes on the rich by one penny.
Balance our national budget on the backs of the middle and lower class.
Cut as many entitlements as possible.
Don't touch bloated military spending.
Don't touch the wealthy's huge fortunes.
HERE WE GO.
What would we do without Bites? Fortunately, the Turtle and the Boner will provide plenty of material. But it may be that we don't have Karl Rove to kick around anymore (fat cats are doing that, even now).
