Good Luck With That

Karmic justice comes in all forms.

So, Eric Cantor has had an epiphany.  Apparently being a huge tool to people in an elective democracy is a liability.  So apparently he's planned a charm offensive (accent on the offensive, no doubt).

The next twelve months are going to depress the hell out of me, I think.  The GOP has just spent the last year being destructive and obstructive.  They have done nothing to help the millions of Americans out of work.  They are committed to protecting the sociopathic bankers who got us in this mess.  They would oppose National Be Nice To Your Mother Day if Obama proposed it.

Yet they are about to switch tacks and commence to, well, lie about what they did and what Obama did and how they really care about average Americans just like you.  And because the media rarely thinks that its job is to call lies lies, they will get away with it on some level.

But they have a lot of ill will to overcome.  I'm not sure they can get there.

I hope not.  I hope we aren't that big a bunch of rubes.
