Excellent article. I was shocked at the number of commenters though, who rationalized centralized power. Perhaps they get paid to say that.

It will all shake out in the revolution, which is inevitable. Ain't no reforming our way out of this problem.

It's called "plausible deniability", Folks.

Like Dr. Frank Burns in "Mash", taking credit for the good stuff but saying all the bad stuff is God's will.

Obama doesn't touch anything his administration does. He's always out campaigning for something when stuff happens. So it's always some "rogue underling" who takes the fall.

From and old Firesign Theater skit:

Kissinger: "Mr. President, what we need is a fall guy!"

Nixon: "Yes, Henry. But I've used up so many lately!"
