Quote from omegapoint:
I think his reference to "Special Olympics" was about congressional republicans.
Funny that nobody seems to be able to remember who's been in charge for the last two and a half years, and it wasnt Bush.
In any event I think that the case could be made for the whole bunch of them being thrown in the worthless pile. How does a group of with 90% disaproval achieve an 80% re-election rate for the incumbents: We (Americans) have become lazy and simply do not care...and they know it!
Nearly every single right minded person in America has been against this bailout shit from the very start, and for the most part people have been very vocal about it. They don't care, and they don't because they know that they don't have too. They need the money from their corporate buddies and so long as they have that they can continue to pull the same ole shit and we will continue to vote for them. Nothing will change. Our problems have become more about our society then our economy, and until that changes I'm afraid that the economic side of things will not improve either.
