Politico "Progressives* have been reluctant to champion a pro-growth, pro-business, pro-wealth agenda — particularly in the financial meltdown of the past 18 months.

"There Will Be No Apology"
RealClearPolitics "The fact is, Americans are increasingly fed up with the racially divisive, politically correct insanity pulsating through the country today. After years of being pressured and browbeaten by the left-wing PC police about what they can say, do, think, and wear, many Americans have had enough. And they're especially furious with being asked to apologize for things that aren't or shouldn't be in the least bit offensive."

Related, if you think about it: Lester Kinsolving: White House press corps pit bull "He did not mince words with the Bush White House. And he is not mincing words with Team Obama." Unfortunately he got a dose of White House disrespect.
