My fingers are crossed: Rosa Brooks on "Battered Congress Syndrome"

I tend to be fairly political, although I just really cannot track things in our country right now without foaming at the mouth, so I try to not get too detail-oriented. Rosa Brooks' article gives you details, but also a whole new swing on things. Hey, have you seen those approval numbers? Let's all vote for Sanity, folks! I love the recent quote by a Republican saying "He's the dumbest president we've ever had." However, that's a bit pat. The really evil, corrosive stuff isn't from HIM! It's from the dark force. Groan. There I go.
