Only one group to blame for this mess

If our country is plagued by chronically high unemployment, soaring gas prices, anemic GDP growth, vicious political infighting, massive government spending and unsustainable debt, a biased big media with no socially redeeming content, major cities going bankrupt with whole states not far behind, big business racking up record profits with no corresponding job growth, fear and confusion over our health care, big unions carving huge chunks out of workers’ paychecks, a muddled and incoherent foreign policy where our people are murdered on our sovereign soil, street gangs exacting vengeance with impunity.

We should only blame one group. The American voter. We voted for all this; this is what we wanted. We are to blame.
