"One of my favorite quotes about politics comes from Henry Kissinger in his book Years of Upheaval, his memoir of the Ford presidency: “A statesman’s duty is to bridge the gap between his vision and his nation’s experience. If his vision gets too far out ahead of his nation’s experience, he will lose his mandate. But if he hews too close to the conventional, he will lose control over events.”
Now, at once, we see both happening to President Barack Obama."

My main objection to Obama was that he wasn't ready to be president.
Being a Lefty is bad enough, but sending some schmuck with a "hope'n change" bumper sticker on his ass was downright suicidal.
I think it's possible this country could pull it's head out of it's ass about "progressivism." I just hope we survive the recklessness that put shit-for-brains in the White House.
