Here's a disturbing sign of the GOP's turn toward postmodernism under President Bush -- a "close" ally of the White House "admiringly" describing the administration's talent for "making their own reality":
But the Bush White House has always been good at what one close Republican ally refers to admiringly as "making their own reality," meaning that the president and his top aides stick doggedly to their political script and agenda, refusing to be knocked off course. What Democrats consider stubbornness and detachment, Mr. Bush's admirers consider determination, and in this case that trait suggests the White House will be in no rush to acknowledge mistakes or to offer detailed explanations that might swamp the president's second-term plans.
Are there any Republicans left who are members of "the reality-based community"?
