RWE – if I have learned one thing, it is that when a Democrat leader says “I will do X”, you can be sure that they won’t do it. And vice versa. Once you get over the rage induced by their doublespeak, they become quite predictable. And it seems that the Bush Administration has been infected with it too. Hank Paulson, “We will use the TARP monies to sop up the tainted assets.” Ooops! We actually used it to punch up bank balance sheets, turn non-banks into banks, and make loans to car companies.

I think Wretchard is spot on (yet again) – our ‘leaders’ continue to hack away at their own credibility. I anticipate the day that We The People finally get up the Courage to toss them overboard like so much Tea from the holds of the Beaver.
