Does ANYBODY in this country understand what is happening while Democrats are in charge?

Alan Caruba, at Warning Signs is concerned that the entire world is crashing down around this nation, economically and strategically. I agree and place the blame on the American voters who chose Obama and Democrats to govern us.
I also fear- with good reason- that had we elected Republicans, these same Obamites would have made America ungovernable by conservatives.
Caruba writes:

....I suspect many have not recovered from the jolt of the November elections that renewed President Obama’s hold on the Oval Office.

I surely have not. I spent the last four years devoting lots of thought to the damage Obama was inflicting on the economy and, by extension, the lives of Americans. So, on this Friday, the volume of chatter about the looming “fiscal cliff” is increasing with everyone, Washington insiders and observers, all fervently hoping for “a last minute deal” to somehow avoid “taxamegon”, the greatest increase in taxes ever.
At this point, I don’t see a deal in the works. Simply put, Obama has long since demonstrated he has no capacity for compromise....

He then goes on to discuss the UN and it's takeover of our sovereignty. The impression one comes away with is that Obama is incapable of compromise with American opponents, but will yield anything and everything to other nations. Then Caruba concludes:

This Friday ushers in a weekend filled with the usual activities we enjoy and it occurs in a nation whose leaders seem unable to resolve the greatest debt the nation has ever had with the Democrats calling for higher taxation and the Republicans calling for cuts to spending. We have been here before in the 1930s during what has since been called the Great Depression.
