I think Jim gets it. Question is does Mish get it? Does Kudlow get it? Does Phil Gramm get it? Hopefully Obama and Dems leadership in Congress get it and brings in the right people who also get it which is most important of all...Screw all these liberal or conservative labels courtesy of the neocons who singlehandidly destroyed this country in a decade..we are Americans Collapsing dollar, massive defecits, gross misallocation of capital benefiting the few on the inside and outdated infrastructure point to declining standards of living for Americans with stagflation at best and hyperinflation as the worst..Great posts..

I'm afraid I have to agree with you. For his real constituency, Bush hasn't been a disastrous president.

sure enough but the average Joe is running pretty hard to stay in place and has time only enough to turn on fox TV as his source of news when he gets home

I think I get it. The Sheeple Dems and Pubs fight while the D0ods up in Washington fleece us and the get out of dodge. g

I just wish I could find a better term than Morons. Maybe Evil Geniuses? I hate to use the term Genius though.

RE:"But part of the reason we have 'mis'-leaders is that we, ourselves, are stupid"

It is true we elect people we shouldn't

On the udder hand, you'll never get elected calling the electorate "stupid"...or whiners for that matter. g
