Insanity

If insanity is when perception does not correlate with reality, then maybe hitting black ice while driving resembles that state. You’re driving along, you see the road, and then, unexpectedly, your tires just quit gripping thereon.

Our federal government seems similar, a sad pack of crapflooders alternating between denial and blame, spinning randomly, without ever pointing in any responsible direction. The State of the Union address this year is scheduled to mark 1,000 days since the Democrat-controlled Senate hasn’t bothered to do its basic job of passing a budget.

Are we spinning out of control, or are we just enjoying a higher form of travelling? I tend to think the former, but perceive that our political class behaves as though it is the latter.

Fortunately, Mitt Romney will step in and offer calm, carefully articulated Syllables of Soothing for us.

    My question is WHERE’s the public outrage?

    The ultimate blame lies with the electorate, we’re the boss.

    And Obama’s approval is still in the mid 40s…  wtf!
