"The Rant" by Tom Degan

When the dust is settled, it will not be said that one positive thing was achieved for America during the eight wasted years of George W. Bush's reign of error - not one.

Which reminds me: Last night on Hardball it was reported that the president of the United States made an appearance on a TV game show called, "Win Lose or Draw". A GAME SHOW!

Can you imagine in your wildest dreams, Jack Kennedy, Richard Nixon - or even a dingbat like Ronald Reagan, for Pete's sake - doing something so stupid???

How much further is this asshole going to trivialize the presidency?
