It's like which would you rather have dumb or dumber?

I'd rather have dumb. The Democrats are even dumber. But
then, being dumber, they can do less damage. Unless they
get control of the tax policy. Then they can really screw
things up.

I don't know, can anyone do worse than going bankrupt? If the republican's
defense of a ruinous tax policy is that the Democrats would make an even
bigger mess of things than we have, then they are in a very bad way. Six
years of a tax policy that takes in far less in revenue than is going out in
expenditures leads to only one place, insolvency. So far it's put us
trillions more in debt than when Bush started, hardly a surprise for anyone
that knows the first thing about taxes. Thinking that continuously taking in
less than one spends will lead to a surplus shows a definite lack of
intellectual ability, maybe even to the point of abject stupidity.

Whether Bush is dumb or dumber than the Democrats is beside the point. The
point is that what he promised his tax cuts would do has not happened, far
from it. To continue to follow policies that are proven failures is
something only dumb or dumber would do. Hopefully, we are smart enough not
to keep doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result.
Which means the next time we won't follow misguided tax policies like
Bush's. Which history has shown do not work. Instead, we'll take our chances
with someone else, someone not like those in charge now, who don't know what
the hell they are talking about.
