Sometimes I wonder if the folks here in old USA have any idea what is going on in our government. But I would bet they know the ballgame scores.

How many remember reading an article in the paper a few years back with the title, "These are the leading culprits who actually caused the subprime mortgage collapse which then caused the current worldwide deep recession."

And guess whose pictures were on it: Jimmy Carter, Bill Clinton, Janet Reno, Franklin Raines, Chris Dodd, Barney Frank and Barack Obama.

No, Mitch Daniels was not there. He was running a business that gave people a job so they could keep their family fed and clothed and pay the taxes the others were spending for living high on the hog.
