Since the beginning of 2009:
-we've averted a true economic catastrophe by stabilizing the banks.
-the economy has posted positive growth for 4 quarters in a row.
-we were losing 700k jobs per month, and now we're adding 100k.
-the car-making industry (and all the ancillary businesses) are coming back.
-green business is beginning to take hold and expand.
-troop levels in Iraq are being drawn down.
-DOW is up 3,000 points in the last 12 months.
-American prestige and public image have improved a jillion percent.
-32 million more Americans have a chance to get health insurance, and insurance companies can longer engage in some of their most egregious practices.
-the scope of the world's most destructive weapons is being rolled back.
-taxes for 95% of all Americans are down.
So of course there's only one thing to do - we need to find the assholes who did nothing but fuck everything up and put 'em all back in charge! Yeah, we should do that.
Don't get me wrong - we still need to clear out a whole big bunch of moldy old politcos who've been around way past their freshness dates. Let's just try to remember how we got to this dance, and who brung us.
