Well Said

When Kevin Drum left The Washington Monthly, I gave up on the site. However, I kept finding others linked to the postings of Steve Benen and Hilzoy so often, I ended up restoring it back to my RSS reader (Sage - a plugin for Firefox).

Today, that action paid off in spades with this simple graph:

It's a real shame Bush and Cheney screwed up so spectacularly, and ignored the law so systematically, that it's interfering with Obama's desire to govern. It really is. If I were in the president's shoes, I might feel the same temptations. But he signed up for this gig, vowing to rebuild the nation. As much as he'd like to get beyond the recent past, nothing of any value is ever built on a corrupted foundation.

'nough said.

Control

Politics is the control of wealth and power. You are being conditioned to condemn politics as petty and boring, thus granting all the more control to the powers that be. You are either a part of the problem or a part of the solution. The choice is yours.
