The biggest crisis facing America today...

...is apparently the terror of congressional earmarks for pork-barrel projects. Which are, you know, a bad thing, but hardly on par with a looming climate crisis, destroyed international relationships, and a broadly failing economy on the echelon of things sending this country down the drain. But because this is apparently the only thing McCain/Palin have to hang their "reform" image on, we have to pretend it supercedes all of these other issues where they would simply rubber-stamp the old Bush plan all in the name of "balance" (see previous post). So, in an election with such a vast array of potential topics, we're left to argue over the minutiae of when Sarah Palin decided she opposed the Bridge to Nowhere. Such fun.
