8. But It's Working

There's a sports announcer from L.A. who used to say it's all about "SCOREBOARD."

It doesn't really matter how you get the win, only that you WIN. Despite being "cultural barbarians," the repubs are winning, and the Democrats are losing.

Now it's fine to say you're willing to lose, if the alternative is stooping to the other side's level. But clearly the high road does not work with the citizens of this country.

Should Charlie Brown be admired for continually wanting to kick the football? Or should Lucy be praised for pulling it away each and every time? In this country, it's the latter.
