The more President Bush loses his hold on reality, the more language is severed from its meaning altogether. |

Apparently you need to be a subscriber to read it. Not that I care what Frank Rich has to say - because I don't. He's a far-left, secular-progressive, anti-Bush smear merchant who himself has little grip on reality.

I can't even make sense of the source.
Can anyone explain what it says?

Do you have any evidence to prove that, other then the fact he writes for The New York Times?

Well, for one, you can read a list of the columns he's written.
Few examples:
| Quote: | The Gay Old Party Comes Out
The political party fond of demonizing homosexuals each election year is as well-stocked with trusted and accomplished gay leaders as virtually every other power center in America. |
| Quote: | The Longer the War, the Larger the Lies
The Bush administration is carpet-bombing America with still more fictions about Iraq. |
| Quote: | Donald Rumsfeld's Dance With the Nazis
What made Mr. Rumsfeld� s invocation of Hitler� s appeasers so special was the preview it offered of the ambitious propaganda campaign planned between now and Election Day. |
| Quote: | Return to the Scene of the Crime
Everyone knows President Bush� s real mission in New Orleans: to make us forget the first anniversary of the downfall of his presidency. |
| Quote: | All the News That's Fit to Bully
The administration has manufactured and milked the controversy over the disclosure of a financial monitoring program to reboot its intimidation of the press. |
| Quote: | Will the Real Traitors Please Stand Up?
It' s the recklessness at the top of our government, not the press' s exposure of it, that has truly aided the enemy, put American lives at risk and potentially sabotaged national security. |
| Quote: | I Saw Jackie Mason Kissing Santa Claus
To fully parse the war-on-Christmas myth, it helps to examine it in the larger context of this year in God. |
| Quote: | 'We Do Not Torture' and Other Funny Stories
There is still much more to learn about our government' s duplicity in the run-up to the war, just as there is much more to learn about what has gone on since. |
| Quote: | Karl and Scooter's Excellent Adventure
The more we learn about the C.I.A. leak case, the more we learn about the real secret Karl Rove and Lewis (Scooter) Libby wanted to protect: the " why" of the war. |
I could go on and on posting more and more of those. Plus I watched him talk about the media and Iraq on Oprah once (one of the only times I've ever watched it), and it was real far-left stuff. Plus I've read and heard on things he's said. So I can say with certainty that he is what I said.

A few of them, yes. At times when the ones I've read were available to the average reader. Particularly after I saw him on Oprah.

Then you should know he researches most of what he says out, having an informed opinion.

Oh, he researches his arguments, yes. The things I've read and his stuff on Oprah showed that. But he spins it like heck - and that's if he's actually giving accurate information. For instance, on the Plame story, he wasn't sharing the truth one bit. You can't trust him, and he's the epitome of the editorial slant of the Times.
Of course as a columnist he's hired to give his opinion, and I recognize this, but that's exactly how you can know whether one is a liberal or a conservative, and just how extreme they are.
Anyways, I need to go to bed now. Good night to you

The article just talks about how Bush has become ignorant of what is happening in Iraq. He keeps repeating "Finish the Mission", even when there really is no mission to complete. It's about how Bush needs to stop repeating his mantra about "stay the course", and re-examine the war, because the way its going now, we will never win.

(Since we can't read the article, there is no point in keeping this open.)
