Head shaking serious columnists. If one side votes essentially along party lines to do the right thing and one party votes to prevent it, that doesn’t mean the process is sadly partisan. It means one party is bad. (Cont’d)
Oh. Was that uncivil? Here’s something nicer but equally true: One party is openly enthralled to a couple of really bad humans. The rest are merely bad faith sycophants and cowards. All of them value power more than the country or its constitution.
Zero of them would tolerate this if they were not already in power. They only tolerate it because their fantasy is perpetual power for themselves. AND SOMETIMES DREAMS COME TRUE. Especially if serious head shakers refuse to describe truthfully what they know is happening.
And they won’t say what they know is happening because they love power too, or at least the damp farts of power that they get to breathe by standing next to actual power. Ok listen to my podcast etc.
