My Take: Whose country is it anyway?

Sometimes Donna Brazile gets it right. The Democratic strategist and former presidential campaign manager for Al Gore, in this past week's now famous dustup with Clintonista Paul Begala over race and gender, chided him for referring to "my party." "It's our party, Paul," she said. "Don't say 'my party.' It's our party." Amen to that. Now if she'd just expand that a bit, with a similar exhortation to so many in that same party who have been saying, "I want my country back," for the last seven-plus years.
