Nixon, and Reagan, and Bush...Oh My!

Well, I'm off to Washington D.C. tomorrow on business. Expect light to nonexistent blogging during the interim, so while I'm gone, please patronize some of the many fine online diarists listed to your left.
Considering my destination, I thought it apropos to leave you with Herblock's History, a fascinating overview of political cartoons by Herbert Block. Those of you who're still distraught over the election may wish to ponder them and consider that America has endured and survived worse things....much, much worse.
Smell ya later...

Nixon at least had a Democrat-controlled Congress which could curb his executive power. We have no countervailing forces in this new regime. I daresay that it would take a scandal of unimaginable proportions -- I can't even conceive of how large it would have to be -- to even make a dent.

Democrats can still filibuster in the Senate.
