21 things we used to hate about us

Think back six-and-a-half years ago to all the things we didn’t like about America:

  1. New Orleans — didn’t like it
  2. Habeas corpus — didn’t like it
  3. Twin Towers — didn’t like ’em
  4. Geneva Conventions — didn’t like ’em
  5. Separation of church and state — didn’t like it
  6. Lives of 3,500 American troops — didn’t like ’em
  7. Health of 25,000 non-fatal U.S. casualties — didn’t like it
  8. Lives of hundreds of thousands of Iraqis — didn’t like ’em
  9. Justice from the Department of Justice — didn’t like it
  10. EPA protections — didn’t like ’em
  11. Record surplus — didn’t like it
  12. Reproductive freedom — didn’t like it
  13. Gay rights — didn’t like ’em
  14. Economic equity— didn’t like it
  15. Right to privacy — didn’t like it
  16. Freedom of Information Act — didn’t like it
  17. World regard for the United States — didn’t like it
  18. U.S. military readiness — didn’t like it
  19. Peace — didn’t like it
  20. Freedom from fear itself — didn’t like it
  21. Age of reason — didn’t like it

Hard to believe that, in such a short time, one man could deal with all those problems. Think of what could be accomplished with four more years of Republican leadership?
