On Hope and Opportunity

I was hoping to keep the Great Depression in the back of historical memory. I wanted to puzzle over how it shaped my Grandpa's life, not live through the re-creation myself.

So thank you George Bush. Thank you John McCain. Thank you Republicans for trying so hard to answer the question, "How many disasters will it take to yank people's heads out of their collective asses?"

Thank you Conservatives for crapping in the pool again. President Clinton had just barely finished cleaning the filter, but thanks for this historic opportunity to scoop out your turds and finally administer some chlorine.
