23. Anyway you slice it, if there was ever going to be a turning point, it was 2008.
It had all the earmarks of being revolutionary and and representing a rolling back of every crazy-ass thing Bush had done.

The election was a referendum on Bush/Cheney.

It was historic.

It SHOULD have been represented, in the admin's actions, it should have been reflected -all that enthusiasm, all that hope and work for change.

We steamrolled the republicans. We left 'em in the dust.

Obama was given the keys to a new car and asked to drive it.

He didn't. He took the shiny new car and left it in the showroom window while he kept driving Daddy's oldsmobile.
