Nice, MLS. Yes, I hadn't thought of that.
Remember when Bushco moved into the White House and they claimed that the Clinton staffers had trashed the place? They said that they must have been animals to do the disgusting things they'd done, implying toddlers run amok, smashing the state china and smearing the halls with their feces, that sort of thing. And it turned out to all be a lie, but that part of the story never got told. It was another Rovian ruse to seal the fate of the Clintons -- and Dems -- once and for all. And being Rovian, they probably realized that trashing the White House was symbolic of trashing the nation. How sadly ironic that they are the ones who have literally done the damage.
