Quote of the Day: Finding Common Political Ground

HOPECHANGE!

Well, hey! Left, right, and center have all managed to agree on something. Everybody hates the health care "reform" bill! OK, so everybody hates it for different reasons, but the fact remains that this monstrosity has offended practically every kind of political sensibility.

(Meanwhile, I wonder if I should chalk up another "sign of the Apocalypse" because Howard Dean, the Daily Kos, and I actually agree. Yikes.)

This brings us to the quote of the day by Kathleen Parker:
. . . left and right finally have discovered a common foe. Too bad for the country that his name is Obama.
Parker goes on to mumble something about feeling sorry for Obama. Really? This is, you know, what happens when you bite off more than you can chew: you CHOKE. I am heartless and cruel, so I feel no great sympathy. You wanted the highest office in the land, and now you got it. All of it. Did you think it was going to be a cakewalk? (I have to admit, though, that watching the floundering, the weird jumble of apparent arrogance and ignorance, and the slow maddening drip-drip-drip of gaffes, errors, and missteps, is now officially excruciating.)
