I mean really what has this powerful DC bureaucrat and his Republican minions done?

Keep in mind we have had a Republican administration in the White House 20 out of the past 28 years while thinking about that.

1. Electing Reagan was a huge mistake.
Carter's energy policy would have saved us from all these energy problems. Thom Hartmann wrote a pretty good piece on it in 2005 (actually before the huge spike in gas prices). http://www.commondreams.org/views05/0503-22.htm

An example:

"Ronald Reagan's first official acts of office included removing Jimmy Carter's solar panels from the roof of the White House, and reversing most of Carter's conservation and alternative energy policies."


It doesn't get dumber than that. I know of nothing that McBombs has done to improve on that stupidity.

3. Outside of campaign finance law, in 30 years he has really no record to stand on.
