So Let Me Get This Straight
I just need to recap for a moment.
Thanks to the inaction or belated action on the part of Democrats, the country is in the following situation:
The loser of the 2000 election was appointed to the position of President;
We’re stuck in a war based on lies so obvious a two-year-old could see through them;
The Supreme Court is stacked;
habeas corpus has been repealed;
Americans are now held hostage by credit card companies charging rates previously known as “usury”;
and the President was allowed to escalate the war with another 41,000 troops (and is currently secretly adding another 200,000).
Oh, and the price of gas is going up again (so much for the oil revenues paying for the war in Iraq and greater energy security).
Yesterday the Democrats said “Sorry, that stuff about timelines to bring the troops home just isn’t going to work out.”
If I was the conspiratorial type, I might be tempted to think this was a deliberate effort on the part of both parties to keep the America people bent over a barrel.
