Had It Coming

To lose one House may be regarded as a misfortune. To lose both looks like carelessness.

The Republicans had it coming. Now, I'm no fan of the Democrats, but the Republicans' run of incompetence and religious extremism couldn't and shouldn't have been tolerated by voters.

And it wasn't. Thank God.

At the moment, it looks as though the Democrats of all people will be working for fiscal reform, if they are capable of such a thing. I personally don't think so - they're far too fond of spending via self-flagellation to actually eliminate the national debt that so sorely needs to be gotten rid of.

Anyway, the election resut is further proof that religious extremism in government always leads to corruption. Here's to secularism!
