So says Joe Biden:

Biden, the Senate Foreign Relations committee chairman, called for military action to resolve the killing in Darfur and promoted his plan for peace in Iraq that would divide the country along ethnic lines. He said Republicans — from former House Speaker Newt Gingrich to President Bush and White House political adviser Karl Rove — had “wallowed in the politics of polarization.” “I would argue, since 1994 with the Gingrich revolution, just take a look at Iraq, Venezuela, Katrina, what’s gone down at Virginia Tech, Darfur, Imus. Take a look. This didn’t happen accidentally, all these things,” he said.

Not just the fault of Republicans, but we did them on purpose?
