This link is a humiliating indictment of the past 7 years based on a chart of economic and diplomatic indicators. With thanks to thinkprogress.
Reading this, I was, at first frustratingly angry, then nauseously depressed, now just bitterly resigned.
It's one thing to mentally know that all this stuff is true. It is quite another to see it in black and white with the numbers to back it up.
In case the chart wasn't compelling enough, Vanity Fair turns to Nobel laureate, Joseph E. Stiglitz for insight. And Tula Connell at firedoglake has more. As an added benefit, she quotes The Onion.
book: The Professor and the Madman by Simon Winchester. Non-fiction- one story of the making of the Oxford English Dictionary.

Looks like an oil man for president wasn't a great choice?!
