34. Even worse. Of course we've all been enablers since 1978.
The right wing has been fucking with our country--and the world--since WWII when the rich tried to stage a coup in favor of Hitler. They failed, but then Friedman's economic policy at the U of Chicago, the birth of the neo-conservatives, and 3 decades of CIA insanity allowed for our country to quickly crash behind the scenes. The chickens hatched back then, raised by Reagan and Bush I, ignored or coddled by Clinton, have come home to roost.

Obama isn't going to change anything. He wouldn't be capable even if he wanted to--which, frankly, I don't think he does. The only difference between the Democrat and the Republican presidential candidates is that the Democrats lie and the Republicans are actually the monsters they claim to be.

Obama already reversed his stands on NAFTA, now FISA. He's already not the candidate people voted for in the primaries and people are justifiably pissed, if not a little thick for having been so naive.
