Default Our Long National Nightmare Is Over

See ya, assholes!



Let's at least be a bit fair in writing his eulogy.

Considering his distinct lack of intelligence, education and
compassion. Combined with a high level of arrogance and
possible lack of sobriety, I'd have to say he did a solidly
average job.

He kept the country safe from terrorism, but his indifference
allowed the economy to burst into flames.
It's the natural result of embracing one extreme while
ignoring the other. Both must be equally extreme and
in balance with each other. Ideally our leader should I believe
be a conservative on national security and an activist
on economic policy. Or the reverse as events require.

He could only be one of those.

As far as his legacy down the road, I believe Iraq will end
up being a success. And that a successful democracy in the
heart is extremist Islam is the best long term solution to
terrorism and the misery of that region.

I also believe the recent economic meltdown is a short term
problem which will produce a better regulated capitalism
eventually.

The beauty of Nature, and of Democracy, is that the good
the bad, and the ugly all find a way of making America stronger
over time. The only way another nation can become
as powerful as America is if they become....just like us.

Those around the world that doubt this truth, that doubt
America will continue to lead the world in keeping it free
and prosperous, do so at their own peril.
