Milestones of 2008

Last on Fox News, as the year drew to a close, Brit Hume's program featured his panel, chaired by Bret Baier, pontificating on the most good and bad political/economic developments of the year.

Among several middling replies was one that, just by the nonchalance of its ennunciator, chilled me.

The panelist said, in reaction to another guests's remark on the historic nature of the First Rookie's election, to paraphrase,

'Well, that's true. And we've also never before in our history had a President-elect already being investigated by a Federal prosecutor before he even takes the oath of office.'

Think about that one.

We've reached a new low. The winner of this year's Presidential election is being questioned in conjunction with a major political scandal, born of the Chicago Democratic machine from which he was spawned.

It's going to be all downhill from here, folks.

At least the silver lining will be those nice GOP seat gains in the mid-term elections now less than 24 months away!
