As far as "new brains", it's a bit like the US over the last 8 years. Alfred E. Neuman could not have done worse. Nothing Bush has touched has worked. (And forget about Iraq. That was to be a $60 billion affair, over in 6 months. Anything with a cost and life overrun like Iraq is a failure.)

It seems to me there's a limit to the amount of money the government can print and still have it worth anything. People are losing jobs and homes - whatever lines there are may be hidden, but there will be lines. And those with cash will find it worthless.

Be proud - it's the Bush Legacy. And it's cast in iron, nothing, no spin, no rhetoric, no verbiage can change the harsh reality. Harsh, sad, tragic reality.
