That would imply it is fixable in a pretty much equal time.
This has been going on for decades. Eisenhower warned of its nascent plotters in the Military Industrial complex.
Reagen institutionalized it with deregulation that essentially undid every safety net we as a people had put in place.
Cheney and the puppet on his knee were simply the ones who last held sway.
Grover Norquist is the latest high priest of the movement.
And he is cheering the whirlpool at the tub's drain.
We, on the other hand, are watching that same whirlpool and seeing our dreams slip away.
And people say we're angry?
I wonder why.

3. That there's no guillotine set up on the Mall tells me people aren't angry enough yet. |
