What could we possibly have done to deserve this fool? 

"The CIA laid out several scenarios and said life could be lousy, life could be OK, life could be better, and they were just guessing as to what the conditions might be like." George W. Bush, New York City, Sept. 21, 2004

If you're as frustrated as I am, read these two primal screams: Herbert and Krugman. Also, TPM had a bunch of worthwhile posts. Finally, my friend Rob has a typically eloquent statement of despair

Bonus quote:

"Let's say you tried to have an election and you could have it in three-quarters or four-fifths of the country. But in some places you couldn't because the violence was too great," Rumsfeld said, hours after the leaders of the United States and Iraq met in Washington.

"Well, so be it. Nothing's perfect in life, so you have an election that's not quite perfect. Is it better than not having an election? You bet," he said.


I have no doubt the same philosophy applies to the US.
