The Democratic Congress, incredibly, has managed in five short months of inaction and diddling around to become less popular than this most loathed and ridiculed of presidents!
Like Laurel and Hardy near the end of a disaster skit, in which their antics have caused nothing but mounting chaos and ruin, the only challenge left for the great leadership team of Speaker Nancy “Impeachment’s-off-the-table” Pelosi and Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid is to see if they can succeed in driving Democratic support numbers down below even the 9 percent level enjoyed by Vice President Cheney.
I have no doubt that this sorry duo can manage this feat, given enough time. All they have to do is keep funding the war, keep ignoring the president’s crimes and the mounting popular calls for his impeachment, keep bottling up the Cheney impeachment bill submitted by Rep. Dennis Kucinich and co-sponsored, now, by seven other House members, and keep yacking about wanting to work “across the aisle” and “with the president.”
The president has his legacy. He is all set to go down in history as the most wretched, debased, ignorant, mean-spirited and treasonous chief executive in the nation’s history. He really need do nothing more to lock in his title.
Pelosi and Reid are well on the way, though, to being able to claim the companion title of lamest opposition leaders in the nation’s history.
