WHEN THE CHEERING STOPPED

I was quite impressed at the 70,000 member march on Washington Septemer 12, to protest excessive government spending; signs depicting Obama with Hitler, Castro, Stalin; urging "bury Obamacare with Kennedy" and warning, "didn't bring my guns - this time" notwithstanding.

It did occur to me, where were these folks when the previous administration was squandering a trillion dollars on fairy tale wars, trillion dollar tax cuts for the already wealthy and enabling trillion dollar swindles of our financial markets?

Then I remembered: they were leading the cheers.
