If it ain't broke don't fix.... Oh, wait. It is broken.

Absolutely excellent article from Rich Lowry commenting on the fact that it is now the liberals who are reactionaries, clinging desperately to manifestly failed policies. Here's a taste of the article:

'Please, don't change anything.' That bids fair to become the liberal slogan for the early 21st century. Who knew government programs circa 2004 would have achieved an equipoise of perfection such that disturbing them in the slightest way would represent liberal heresy? And who would have guessed that 'progressives' would become opponents of change so thoroughgoing that they would make Edmund Burke blush?
