So I get the paper this morning and am greeted with this headline-

Reagan image: New deal for the dime? Republicans in Congress push to honor 40th president at FDR's expense

Umm, that's really nice and all, especially considering that Ronald Reagan is the greatest human being to ever walk the earth, but shouldn't you guys be doing something else? Like, for instance, adding more money to Unemployment Benefits? Or Health Care?

I think the GOP is doing stuff like this simply because they can. Let's face it, the Barbarians aren't storming the gates, the gates have been stormed. We're at the raping & pillaging stage. We're at the Manor Lords getting to sleep with all the Brides to Be stage. We're at the Vomitorium Stage. If the Republicans decided to pass a law dictating that everyone in a Blue State has to wear a hat with a propeller on it and quote the Pledge of Allegiance everytime someone from a Red State passes by them, they probably could. Who'd stop them? Most of the GOP who aren't lame-asses are either being bought off or beaten down; the Dems couldn't tie their shoe laces without asking permission first; the folks on MSNFOXNN are too busy shreiking about the Grammy Awards sucking due to being part of some Hollywood Elitist conspiracy; and the White House Press Corp are like those animals you see in the zoo who are so pilled up on downers that they can barely shit. As for us, the American People, well Trista and Ryan are getting married! And Gwynnie's Preggers!

Oh well, we do have this- Spreading Santorum.
