Oh, waving the white flag. If there is nothing anyone can do about it (you hope??), why are you even bothering to read this thread?
Courage is the test of all virtues. Do you know the implication of this? It means people who say “it won’t work, no one can do anything, just give up now” either have no courage and should shut and go mope in the corner by themselves, or are trying to dissuade people *with* courage from doing anything.
There are not other alternatives.
My only consolation is that I don’t think Nobama will be re-elected in 2012.
