it's not just that they are hypocritical holier than thou amoral war mongering bloodthirsty greedy pig dogs it's that they are stunningly mind boggling incompetent hypocritical holier than thou amoral war mongering bloodthirsty greedy pig dogs. Anything they touch turns to dung. That's what really makes this crew special. The nation has had crooks in government before but at least after you bribed Boss Tweed you got the building built or the job done(by his folks) but these clowns - In Iraq Baghdad has one hour of power a day (and it's getting on to summer) New Orleans is still a mess with no real plan in sight and it's coming up on hurricane season (did they ever manage to rebuild trent Lott's house by the way? Just wondering - * made a big deal about that so I'd guess the answer is no). And foreign policy - well if there is the one thing to say or do that will make things worse - they will find it and do it.

It'd be comical if people weren't dying along with the dream of the republic. That's what's not funny - we're going to have present the corpse of the American Dream to our descendants and say "here fix it - we screwed it up big time)
