Something worse than Bush.

I'm wondering if the Democrats and liberals are capable of governing. Consider the fact that Democrats have a 59-41 majority in the U.S. Senate. Yet, they have been unable to pass meaningful health care reform. And it's been because they have been blocked by the minority party. And hey, I think of Republicans as idiots. Yet, they keep outsmarting the Democrats. So I have to grudgingly admit that Democrats may have IQs even lower than that of idiots. Believe me, that puts them in a subterranean level. Into an abyss. But also, I suspect the Republicans have an advantage because they are boundlessly ruthless. They have no scruples. No principles. In a sense, Democrats outsmart themselves. They are too kind. Too accommodating. In the world of politics, those can be fatal flaws. Disastrous. It could even lead to Republican take-over of Congress in November. Think of it. If Democrats thought George Bush was bad, start thinking about the likes of Sarah Palin. --Jim Broede
