How 'bout we put EVERY government expense to a plebicite? No, "Visa" for health care or "stimulus" an immediate demand for the cash upfront.

How many of your idiot ponzi programs do you think the majority would support if they were faced with the cost, to them, at the moment they had to vote? Do you think BHO's "stimulus" would have passed if everyone had to fork over $15K for it?

I’ve read the dictionary definition of blunderer (2: to make a mistake through stupidity, ignorance, or carelessness), and I it believe it is somewhat incomplete.

There is another aspect to blundering that is missing from this definition, and it centers about ego and blind arrogance.

While I fully agree with the Webster definition, it seems that many blunders are less chance events, and more driven by egocentric individuals, blinded by their own will and arrogance.

Napoleon’s and Hitler’s invasions of Russia. Custer’s final battle with the Sioux. The United States’ escalation in Vietnam.

All blunders and all...
