I know that many of you who read my blog don’t always read the progressive websites. So when I see something that connects with me, I try to post it here on my own blog. (Of course, I also make sure to give credit to the other writers, because not doing that would completely suck.)
Anyway, I read Battered American Syndrome, written by Vyan and posted on the Democratic Underground. I love it. It is an excellent collection of twenty examples of the Bush Administration and Republican Congress being completely and totally wrong.
