Word Of The Century

I saw this word for the first time on Van Helsing's outstanding Moonbattery blog:

kakistocracy:

Government by the least qualified or most unprincipled citizens.

This word so accurately describes government at every level: local, state, and federal. We have absolutely no representation whatsoever; only greedy, corrupt, self-serving, self-aggrandizing hacks! I see no relief in sight -- especially what awaits us after January 20, 2009.
