Conspiracy?

As outlandish as it sounds, the theory that a coterie of Republicans and Powerful figures have conspired to destroy the USA by enormous deficits is becoming more and more plausible as the only means to make sense out of what we see. Can educated men and women be as stupid as those in the Bush Administration appear to be? When William Clinton arrived, he was compelled to try to restore fiscal responsibility, putting health care and other items on hold....forever. He inherited it from Bush Sr. Now we have this Bush Jr. thing. Perhaps the Republicans see themselves as the character called "Lardass" in the movie "Stand By Me." They intend to leave everything a whirlpool of vomit and refuse. They are waiting until we yell "uncle!". Then they will march in with their New World Order.
