More and more people are now seeing the utter bankruptcy of Republican ideas, notions, and policies. More and more people are (almost too late) becoming liberals. Thank you. Oh thank you, George Bush and your lock-step Republicans in the House, Senate, and Supreme Court, from the bottom of my heart.

Thanks for starting a war based on a lie. Thanks for starting a war with no exit strategy. Thanks for torture. Thanks for abridging habeus corpus. Thanks for flagrantly and repeatedly violating the Geneva Conventions. Thanks for signing statements. Thanks for warrantless wiretapping. Thanks for turning over government agencies to industry lobbyists. Thanks for gutting financial and industry regulations across the board. Thanks for politicizing the justice system. Thanks for outing Valerie Plame. Thanks for restricting foreign aid with social-conservative requirements. Thanks for taking the tax burden off of the rich and shifting it to the middle class. Thanks for cutting and ignoring our infrastructure. Thanks for trying to undermine the U.N. Thanks for playing all our international allies like fools. Thanks for the non-response to Katrina. Thanks for ignoring Al-Qaeda and the Taliban. Thanks for using your wars as an excuse to dump money to no-bid contractors. Thanks for putting us behind the 8-ball with the giant deficit. Thanks for "Unitary Executive Theory," a fancy term for Fascism. Thanks for redacting scientific reports on climate change and endangered species. ...and so much more. But most of all, thanks for never recognizing or apologizing for any of the above. No one could have done a better job of putting "conservative theory" into a trial laboratory and demonstrating the miserable failures across the board than you have. Now we can say it's been tried and failed. Conservatism's apologists are left with no ammunition whatsoever for any argument they care to make. Hopefully thanks to your efforts over the past two terms, we can look forward to a progressive century. P.S: Condi, actually Democracy is a "popularity contest," by definition. Go tell Cheney. Yeah, we’ll thank him… let’s get that over with right now.
