When the midterm elections of 2010 are examined by historians fifty years or so from now, it will be noted that either the downfall of our nation came at the hands of a distinct fringe group of the Republican party. Or that the salvation of our political system came about at the hands of a massive case of voter's remorse.
For those of the "Throw the bums out!" mentality, remember the old cliche': The grass isn't always greener on the other dide.
'Throw the bums out!" is a good idea in theory. The reality is though that only nut-ball-whack-o-fucking-nuts were elected in their place..
but I think you're right. I think 50 years from now we'll look back and find ourselves shocked at just how racist and crazy this time in our history was.. To go off topic a second. It's so fucking crazy that I am thoroughly convinced the GOP will do everything in their power to tank the debt ceiling movement in order to steal the Obama/Osama win from this president.. Before last week I thought there was a chance, in the last minute, that the GOP would work with this admin to figure that whole ordeal out since they know just how bad it will be if it's not 'raised'.... but now, with this 'win' on Obama, they will stop at nothing to kill any progress he makes..up to and including destroying the world economy and our own economy on apocalyptic proportions..just to see his numbers fall
