Editor, Daily News:
If there is a lasting legacy to the Bush administration, it will be the short-term destruction of the Republican party. The Republicans finally have control of the Senate, House and White House, and look what they've done.
They've cut taxes and increased spending, driving our country into unbelievable debt. They've initiated foreign policy that makes Vietnam look like a good idea. Big government keeps getting bigger and more inept.
It will take years for the Republican party to recover from the damage. I'm sure Dwight Eisenhower is rolling over in his grave, along with Dick Nixon and Ronny Reagan.
Some pundits cry that the Democrats don't have an answer. Maybe there is no answer to this mess. We need to vote everyone out of office in Washington, start fresh, and put in term limits for Congress and the Supreme Court.
And, of course, pass a balanced budget amendment.
