We're seeing a plethora of mistakes eminating from the Bush administration: from the "we'll only use the sixty stem cell lines we already have" - which turned out to be ten, if that - to the failed Afghanistan campaign, for that "nation" is falling apart. Then came along the Enron/Worldcom scandals, which led right along to the convenient distraction of Iraq.
Distraction led to misleadings, and misleadings led to lies.
Here on the dKos, we've exposed, listed, and debated every blunder this administration has compounded...that we know about, anyway. My question to you is: Has every administration made so many mistakes, or is this simply the most incompetent?
Blogs are wonderful in how they can pluck information from the depths of obscurity to share with the world. If there's a great story in the LA Times or the Chicago Tribune that everyone should know about, it's unlikely that anyone outside LA or Chicago respectively would know about it. Blogs allow people to share that information with the world.
With that in mind, dKos (as well as all the other great blogs) has been instrumental in bringing all this new information to light about the pathetic attempts of the Bush administration (and the media's following them along like a lost puppy) to cover up all their mistakes.
Did Reagan make this many mistakes? Did Bush I? And did we just miss them because we weren't as 'wired' then as we are now?
If so, then there is much hope for the future. If all Republican administrations were as blunderous as this one, and if they survived on the division of the American people, they no longer have that option.
The era of the blogs has begun, and those who would divide the American people to conquer us will never be able to do so again.
