Dumb Political Slogan Contest

Oops! We already have a winner!

"We are turning the corner, and we're not turning back!" --Evel Knievel, July 30, 2004. No, I lied. It was George W. Bush.

Now, let's see ... what is it about this administration that makes swing voters nervous? Could it be the pig-headedness of wrong decisions incorrectly arrived at, pursued with a single-minded fervor right over the edge of the cliff?

We've turned a corner, all right. But the driver of this rig, who's blind to the disaster he's driving us toward, doesn't admit there's any other course possible. For summing up the arrogance of the Bush/Cheney regime, that slogan will do quite admirably.
