Olbermann's Special Comment last night was a delightful litany of charges against the Bush/Cheney cabal, and a demand: "RESIGN!"
Well done, well said, truth righteously spoken to power. But alarmingly, it's becoming more apparent with each passing day that the psychopaths in the White House hardly need to be told how their nation feels; they know full well, they just don't care. They're totally aware: it's not, as some have suggested, that they live in a hermetically-sealed bubble in which they create their own reality. They're completely cognizant that over 60% of the country despises them, and only 29% think that their War of Lies will be a success. But they don't care. They're not in power for the benefit of the people who elected them -- they're in for themselves and their buddies and they're staying in until they've scraped every last penny from the dregs of the Treasury and pissed on the Constitution until that goddamn piece of paper is as unrecognizable as the country they've spent 6 years trashing and looting.
