It took 30 years and 204 days, but on Tuesday August 2, 2011 the fruits of the Reagan Tree of Life will finally have reached its peak when the over-ripened, low-hanging, worm-filled Reagapples will begin to pound the ground, not with sweetened blossoms, but with a dead thud. 30 years and 204 days of belittling and ignoring the American education system, calling ketchup a vegetable, telling us trees cause pollution, cutting taxes to create trickled-down imaginary jobs (OK there are a few more maids and gardeners) and teaching Americans that they could have everything they want and it will cost nothing - the Teadras educated Republican party is willing to take the ultimate bet and tell the piper (or croupier) this time to shove it.
...
Somehow, I don't think the Republicans of Reagan's time would have envisioned this eventuality.
So much for "Morning in America".

We were mourning in America when that asshole was still governor.
D-cap's entire article is great. And as one commenter said, this is the time when Obama should let the cameras in on the closed-door negotiations so the American people can see the Republicans try to defend their policy stance. (Obama won't, of course, but it's a nice thought.)
