1. We see all this very clearly.

We see the absolutely abysmal performance in the press conference.
We see the shameful redistribution of wealth.
We see the most blatent cronyism ever.
We see the 'absolutely destroy your critics' mentality in *.
We see the results of one party rule. The Treasury is laid bare.
We see our kids and grandchildren having to pay for *'s crimes.

We see an awful lot more reprehensible behavior in Washington.

I sure wish I understood why polls don't show a 80 - 20 split right now.
