“And spare me the whining about how the Republicans don’t have a better plan. They don’t have the White House. They don’t have the Senate. They don’t have the House. They don’t have to have a better argument than the claim that the Democrats’ plan isn’t better than the status quo. It’s not as if the Democrats shot down Social Security in 2005 and have now done something better.” — Andrew Samwick, professor of economics at Dartmouth on the similarities between the Republicans dooming healthcare reform and the Democrats dooming social security reform

The political rhetoric coming from the GOP around Obama’s school speech is sad. So is the birther movement…some people are desperate.
You are right - it reminds me of the “Bush knew about 9/11 before it happened” of the left. Both sides have their wackos, it seems like when the party is out of power, there are few with enough power to shut them up.
But trust me - the overall GOP thinks they are wacko too.
