Link of the Day [9.29.08]
The Republicans mean to wreck the country. It is their nature. When the main cause celebre for them is that "Government cannot do anything good," then you go about proving it. You get elected. Then you systematically dismantle everything that was working and replace it with things that sound like they work, but are really a bogus shell of activity.
Why do the American people elect these people? You wouldn't put an arsonist in charge of the fire department, and yet, time after time, Republicans get elected and they go about ruining things. They are the ones striking the match to start the fire.
