My point is, removing Harry Reid will make a bigger difference than you are willing to admit given the ground you have staked out in this thread. MY BIGGER POINT is that all these Freepers are falling for this bullshit headline and not reading the article.
Drive by commenting can embarrass.
The article itself is all about the optics of how the fight will pan out, with the D’s being labeled as the obstructionists while the R’s are able to finally pass politically-symbolic laws that make them appear conservative while knowing that Obama will veto it and there won’t be enough votes to override the veto.
IOW, it seems to me that the article is saying we’re going to have great kabuki theater for all the talking heads to wag their tongues over, while the country goes to Hell in a handbasket.
I’m sick of politics. I hate politics. Why doesn’t somebody have the brains and the will to finally fight for the survival of the country? This is sort of like saying it’s great that Winston Churchill took over the helm in the middle of the darkest days of WWII because then he could show that he MEANT to fight Hitler even while never actually fighting Hitler. It’s stupid. “Politics” is stupid at all times but stupid and downright dangerous when it keeps you from fighting a battle for survival. Just once I would like a politician truly GET IT and say it out loud, that the USA is in an existential war for our survival.
