Irony Detection Failure

I swear, Commentary's Jennifer Rubin is about the easiest target I could possibly come across. Today, she's moaning about the stimulus.

It is hard to conclude that the Democrats were actually trying to meet the President’s stated goals. There is little wonder that the President and Democrats want this voted on fast. If lawmakers, not to mention the public, figure out what’s in this they might have second thoughts. If they slow down and actually read what is in the bill, they could get the idea this is essentially one big political payoff, not a serious economic plan – and certainly not one that is targeted or temporary, as Democrats promised. (This might account for the administration’s failure to make the bill accessible despite promises of “transparency.”)

Despite the fact that Rubin (as usual) is dead wrong about both the content and the transparency of the bill, the fact anyone from the conservative side of the aisle is complaining about being railroaded into passing a bill too quickly without being able to read the fine print is hysterical in a post-PATRIOT Act world, not to mention Bush asked for the same exact fast-tracking on the TARP legislation a couple months ago.

But that hasn't occured to Rubin. Apparently, a lot of things fail to occur to her. Bonus stupidity:

What about those Democrat Blue Dogs who are supposed to be concerned about fiscal discipline? One Republican adviser was blunt, “They are all bark and no bite, and they always cave to Pelosi in the end even though the media always gives them credit for talking a good game.” We’ll see if some of the Democrats in competitive seats have the nerve to go up against the new President. I’m betting only a handful do.

Hey Blue Dogs, wake up. The GOP still hate you and will do everything they can to destroy you...so why bother to help them do it like you've been doing for the last two years?
