I don't think folks on the right understand the across the board decline this country is undergoing. We've fallen behind in almost every measurement I can think of......longevity, academic performance, infant mortality, personal savings rates, per capita income, number of patents issued are just a few that come to mind. Add to that govt. debt growth that is unsustainable and a weakening competitive posture in the global economy. If republicans were as patriotic as they like to think they are, they'd take the blinders off and raise holy hell with their elected officials.
