"Almost always when bad policies are adopted, it's during a period of crisis"

Add that statement to Rahm Emanuel's statement:

"You never want a serious crisis to go to waste. And what I mean by that is an opportunity to do things you think you could not do before."

And what does that tell you? They are drooling at the thought of implementing bad policy.

Now add 8 months of a presidency using the above thought process and you get failure after failure after failure.

This does well relate to today. Hoover = Nixon = Bush. FDR = Carter = Obama.
