2008 is mercifully coming to an end. The year of the ass-backward; the year of the bailout, the meltdown and of failed leadership will soon be behind us, as will the disaster known as the Bush Presidency. Unfortunately, it appears as if President Bush isn't quite prepared to saddle up and ride off into the sunset singing "Home on the Range" just yet. His approval of a bailout for the auto industry is yet one more nail in the coffins of capitalism, our constitution and individual freedom.
