I thought of these two pictures over the weekend when considering the possibility that the voters could conceivably hand over both houses of Congress and the White House to the Republicans in November. And I thought, Does the American public have amnesia? Don't they remember the last time they did that, and what a disaster it was for America?
Come on, people! Try to remember: 9/11, Katrina, two unfunded (and unending) wars, Dick Cheney, torture, an unfunded Medicare drug benefit, the squandered surplus, the exploding budget deficits, the worst economic contraction since the Great Depression!
Why on earth would we want to go back to that?
