Adult in the caucus - Ha!

According to Webster's adult - a meaning one and dolt meaning a dull fellow so I guess with Bonehead they have it made.

Bush generated more signing statements than all previous residents of the Oval Office, combined. The honor of the development of the concept of the Imperial Presidency is all Bush's (well OK, all Cheney's, since it was all Bush could accomplish to sit up and feed himself three times a day).

You should go read that an executive order can just be tosed in the trash with the next President.

Maybe that's what the GOP is pissed about. Due to demographics, they may not be able to elect a President in the foreseeable future.

You are living in a fantasy world if you think this country will vote in another Dem for President in 2016.

You're living in a fantasy world if you think today's GOP will appeal to blacks, Hispanics, gays, youth, women ... In politics, demographics is destiny.
