You know who the real losers today are?  If you guessed people on the Right who didn’t sellout any semblance of principle by signing on to the most expensive entitlement program in human history chances are you’re already auditioning for a communications job for Obama:

A huge part of the blame for today’s disaster attaches to conservatives and Republicans ourselves (ed. – what’s this “ourselves” shit, kimosabe?).

At the beginning of this process we made a strategic decision: unlike, say, Democrats in 2001 when President Bush proposed his first tax cut, we would make no deal with the administration. No negotiations, no compromise, nothing. We were going for all the marbles. This would be Obama’s Waterloo – just as healthcare was Clinton’s in 1994.

This time, when we went for all the marbles, we ended with none.

…

Could a deal have been reached? Who knows? But we do know that the gap between this plan and traditional Republican ideas is not very big. The Obama plan has a broad family resemblance to Mitt Romney’s Massachusetts plan.

Frum’s shameful joy overlooks the usual gaggle of weak-kneed, northeastern liberal Republicans and Lispy Graham who are quick to roll over and slap an asscheek in pursuit of some one-way jackhammer bipartisanship.

That’s certainly one way to describe a bill so odious that the President had to shove a feeding tube down his own party’s throat filled with dirty Chicago politics in pursuit of an anorexic, one vote win.  Really.  He had to bribe his own people to vote for the bill they wrote alone in secret.

Everybody start listening to that Frum guy.  And rent Stalag 17 while you’re at it.
