Did you ever believe that, in the midst of a Democrat-caused rout against their inept opposition, that so much good would be underway?  Me either, until I saw it happen.  Count it as one more thing for which to be thankful.

For those gloomy from the endless fight against Obama, here’s some good news that’s happened under his watch I’m sure he didn’t want:

1. ACORN:  They’re under assault despite the placement of their preferred government, and they’re losing.  Document dumps, employees caught on tape advising pimps, and other goofs could well lead to their ruin.  Credit to Breitbart, Giles, and O’Keefe for getting the ball rolling on what could wind up being the effort that ends this bunch.
2. Global Warming…busted:  First, the hacked emails in Britain showing data fudging and suppression of dissent, then New Zealand.  This scam is slowly being exposed for what it is.  It’s not dead yet, but its a worthwhile one-two punch for starters.
3. Infuriated independents:  I’m an independent conservative that never had any faith in the Democrats.  Now, a lot of otherwise undecided independents are starting to share that view.  They’re probably the reason for the current legislative rush, because the Democrats know they’ll get pummeled for their extremism in 2010.
4. The disposal of Democrats infesting the Republicans:  A lot of people are starting to realize that the Republicans are worthless as an opposition party if it retains its Democrats.  The Republican machine spins it as the “big tent”, but there’s a world of difference between tolerating a few differences from people willing to work them out with you and favoring those who turn on you without warning when the chips are down.  Scozzafava found out the hard way that this won’t be accepted anymore, and I suspect a few more mislabeled Democrats will again in 2010.  Heck, this site is dedicated to undermining the biggest mislabeled Democrat in the Republican party today, The Mavericky John McCain.

We’re making headway.  It doesn’t look good at first glance, but if you dig a bit, there’s cause to be pleasantly surprised at the news lately.
