I think this is the part where I call you a surrender monkey and accuse you of being french. Are we still doing that? I forget, the talking points are always shifting.
Seriously though, I hear you loud and clear. The saner part of this country never trusted him from the beginning, but there's also this fantatical right wing neo-con theocracy group that encompasses another third of the country. That leaves the middle group with the ability to sway things, and quite honestly, when they're in freaked the fuck out and/or "what harm could he do" sheople mode, they tend to give the right wingers their ear.
Why? Great question. I can't figure it out either. Again, hopefully the next president will get things back together. I hear that Hillary would send Bill out to help repair the damage and that alone is worth her price of admission.
All I can really hope is that we as a nation have learned from this.
