65. Um...you know you're in America, right?
Neither Bush nor these Dems enshrined our permanent state of war.

Lay that on Truman.

That's the hard nut underneath everything else. Preparation for and fighting of wars is essential to our economy, and has been so for decades. It is never discussed, but it's as important to the economy as consumer confidence and housing indices.

Cracking that nut is the ultimate goal, and no House bill will get it done. That's a generational fight.

Just sayin'.
