Bush Watch

By David Boaz

Over at RedState, they're excited about a video narrated by Sen. Fred Thompson -- remember him? -- for the President's Dinner of the National Republican Senatorial Committee and the National Republican Congressional Committee. It's a fine video, full of stirring music and appeals to freedom and smaller government by Thompson, John McCain, and the President -- Ronald Reagan, that is. In 5 minutes and 28 seconds, there was no room for a clip, a photo, or a mention of the current President, what's his name, Bush.

Republicans are no dummies. If they haven't had a president they're proud to be associated with in the past 20 years, they'll reach back 27 years ago to the first inaugural address of a president they can still sell.
