Just Desserts?

In what is certainly a fitting postscript to the end of the latest Rethug era, the WaPo has a story about the newly unemployed dead-enders in the Bush Assministration (how we'll miss that term!). The jobless Rethugs are now scrambling for jobs that don't exist, in a blighted economy that their Preznit and party helped bring about. Sweeet! As one consultant put it, "They are loyalists who stayed the course and are not sure what they're going to do."

Well, for starters let them send out resumes and stand in the unemployment line like the millions of Americans that they helped put out of work thanks to their laissez-faire, let the market run wild, greed is good, regulation is bad philosophy. Remember right wing demi-god Ronnie Raygun's pronouncement at the beginning of the conservative restoration?

"Government isn't the solution; it's the problem."

Let them reflect on that as they collect their unemployment checks from "the problem."
