I know this is all "in your face" grifting, but I doubt it compared to Cheney/Bush era grifting via Iraq and homeland security.

Yeah, it's highly doubtful things will ever be what they actually should, but there still can be some significant improvements made. That kind of shit is most assuredly still going on behind this "in your face" stuff as well. We'll probably never get rid of that, but the overt shit shouldn't be that hard to get legislation done for - IF we ever manage to regain our sanity in this country.
