George Will's last column is a must read. Then check out Rod Dreher's "How the Conservatives Crumble."

We've gone over many years from the greatest creditor nation to the largest debtor in the world. We depend in $2 billion in foreign capital every working day. But don't expect any outraged sermons on that. (Not a good fund-raising subject).
For more sobering facts like these, read "Running on Empty: How the Democratic and Republican parties are bankrupting our future and what Americans can do about it" by Pete G. Peterson.
