I miss those days when the Republican would win again and we would shake our heads and be depressed for a while and then move on because it really was just politics and budgets. Then Gore won the election but George Bush II ascended to the Oval Office and WTO happened, and 9/11 happened, and Enron happened, and Iraq happened, and Katrina happened…
…and the Mortgage Crisis happened, Hurricane Ike barely made the news as Wall Street happened, and now Sarah Palin encouraging the crazy angry people to get all riled up.
