Mid-Year Report: Is a Summer Turn-around Still Possible?

It's not the Republicans and it's not the Democrats, it's us. We want to hear a bedtime story, while sucking on a lolly pop and they give it to us while helping their friends sell us down the river. I'm sure sagesteve will continue to do fine, his sons will be in charge of the Chinese Reeducation Camps Corporation (Symbol CRCC in the SSE), Iksseven will be teaching Conversational Chinese and denying he ever liked Dick Cheney and Phil's mantra will be Nancy Who?

I hope Phil is right and Americans refuse to use any more oil but that which is absolutely necessary during a break neck transition to all the alts mentioned, but I doubt it. We've become, fat and lazy, have an absurd feeling of entitlement and are ripe for any demagogue to lead us to perdition with reassuring fairy tales.
