Shock: Another republican dipshit in Michigan

"If you love Greece right now, you're going to love the second term of Obama."  Bill Schuette, Michigan Attorney General

Leaving aside the fact that being Attorney General of the state of Michigan makes one as qualified to discuss economic policy as  the village idiot to explain string theory, I don't know if I can take another six months of republican lies that by some miracle will get through to 45-49% of American voters who will actually cast their ballots for the party that's guaranteed to make their economic well-being worse.

Even the Europeans are beginning to see the error of their ways--economic contraction, runaway unemployment, double dip recession.  Not that if anybody in a position of power had been listening to Paul Krugman for months, and probably years, we'd probably be in much better shape economically than we are now.  The last action we need to be taking while still in the throes of an economic downturn is to be cutting government spending--we should be spending money to prop up the economy.  But true to form--much like their benfactors, corporate America--the republicans will continue to be penny wise and pound foolish.

And Americans will continue to suffer needless economic hardship because of them.

Peace,
