“History may record that what offended them [American voters in 1994, when Congress changed hands] wasn’t liberalism but busybodyism — the endless, frenetic search by elected officials for ever-new ways to make the country more fabulous. Bush and his Republicans are close to proving that busybodyism can become a creature of the right as well as the left.” (Andrew Ferguson, “Operation Overreach”, Weekly Standard, May 16)(via Sullivan).
