“There’s a reason the problems we face today are so much bigger than they were several years ago. A big part of it is that George Bush and John McCain have been so focused on pursuing a flawed and costly war in Iraq that they’ve lost sight of our mounting problems here at home. Instead of working to fix our economy and lift up hardworking families, they’ve fought to extend a war that’s costing thousands of lives and billions of dollars without making us any safer – a war that has strengthened our enemies and distracted us from the real battle with Usama bin Laden in Afghanistan and Pakistan.”
Barack Hussein Obama, yesterday-ish
I don’t know about you, but I can’t wait for the next five months. There is the unbridled pandering, the credit taking for anything good, the blaming for and shirking off of anything bad, the lies, the oversimplifications, the polarizations, the politicizing of everything under the sun, and the general dumbing-down of America. I feel us getting denser even as we read or hear these types of blurbs. As a matter of fact, Barack’s comment is almost starting to make sense to me.
