The Lineup: December ‘11
#EpicFail: Government. No one thing was clearer to me this year than the disgust that people have had with government. In the Middle East, we saw several revolutions that directly led to three dictators being ousted from their thrones. Even stateside, we saw our fair share of protesting. Whether it was the Tea Party or Occupy [Enter City Here], Americans were simply unhappy with the people that run our country. Despite me being an avid Obama supporter, I too am disappointed with my government. Shame on the Republicans for holding this country hostage and prolonging the economic crisis for the sole purpose of setting the table for the 2012 election and shame on you, President Obama, for allowing their antics to be paraded around as democracy.
