The Obama re-election topped off the pathos to this horrible year. 2013 portends to suck too! m/r
The American Spectator : Annus Horribilis Comicus
By Jed Babbin on 12.31.12
If you think 2013 will be any better, John Boehner has a Plan C to sell you.
2011 delivered so much political chicanery and congressional knavery some thought that 2012 couldn’t possibly outdo it.
The more cynical among us, including your humble correspondent, knew better. A presidential election year would be enough to guarantee a new low, and we knew Obamacare would come before the Supreme Court, NBC would be in charge of the Olympics, the EU would continue its monetary meltdown while France — our favorite comic opera country — would be holding its own presidential election. Inevitably, we concluded, 2012 would leap every hurdle to make 2011’s nitwittery seem mild in comparison. And, of course, it did.
The monthly accounting of 2012 is ready, and it reads like a movie script Mel Brooks would have rejected.
JANUARY was a tough month.
