The Washington Post’s Harold Meyerson on Bush’s departure from the reality-based community:
[T]he Bush campaign has all but made a virtue of the bubble in which Bush resides and presides. This presidency is a triumph of the will, of resolve. Facts are for flip-floppers; data, for girlie-men. Kerry commands the facts and it breeds vacillation. The force is with Bush, and that is all he, and the nation, need. Bush has fused anti-empiricism and cultural resentment — and that, should he ride it to victory, will truly be a catastrophic success.
