I believe I first said it around October 5, and I've said it several times since: it's a LOUSY month to be a Republican.
I hope you will all forgive me a little smugness. Everything I've been saying about this administration for the last five years is coming out in the press now. All the rumors and suggestions are being confirmed by insiders, people who know first-hand. This administration has been an unmitigated DISASTER. It has set back the American economy further than any government in US history. It has left us wide open and vunlerable to further attacks--indeed, it has created more new terrorists than Osama Bin Laden could have ever dreamed of. And, as Wilkerson says here, it has singlehandedly destroyed the fighting force that it wants to police the world with.
Pardon me: I said "unmitigated" disaster. There are mitigating factors. For instance, the rich people are richer now than they've ever been. Hurrah for that. Never mind that 40% of america is below the poverty line and we've created in five years a debt that our great-grandchildren's government will still be paying off.
