Why is Saritha Prabhu Angry?

Thanks to Tom Brown, a self-described "refugee from the SBC," for calling my attention to the op-ed "Angry? Only if you can see this administration clearly" by Saritha Prabhu, a recently naturalized citizen.

Prabhu provides a perspective that is sorely lacking from the mainstream media where I live. Here are some of the reasons why she is so angry at this administration:

In a way, it has been a feeling of deja vu for me. We, my husband and I, left our native India in part because of the chronic cronyism, incompetence and corruption in government and many walks of life.

No government can be perfect, but these past six years here have been an echo of what we left behind.

A lot of native born Americans thought cronyism, incompetence, and corruption had been left behind us too. Discovering the extent of our naievete has been unwelcome, painful and infuriating to a lot of us.
