Hmmm... let's see how much of the bush/cheney mess has finally been cleared up? Let's see... the unemployment numbers keep dropping. What? We're down into the FIVE-PERCENT levels?

With all kinds of dead weight attached, and hurdles and piles of dogshit and other obstacles pushed into his way, and blocking and obstructing everything in sight.
