A lot of things happened. Here are some of the things.
GOP senators doth protest too loudly after Democrats managed to sidestep the giant banana peel in their path. The trap the GOP set was no secret. It would play along with a watered-down bipartisan agreement on popular infrastructure items and count on moderate Democrats to wilt when it came time to pass less popular soft infrastructure and tax reforms. In announcing that he would only sign the bipartisan bill if he had a reconciliation bill on his desk at the same time, Biden kept his shot at passing his more ambitious agenda.
Sen. Graham should stick to trying to corrupt election results.
Itâs not these heâs more successful at it; but, heâs certainly more credible when he tries.
In the late evening hours of Tuesday November 4 1980 I was abducted by space aliens and taken to a parallel world named Htrae where up was down and the President was just a B movie actor. Perhaps now I can return to Earth.
I saw that this AM. If that doesnât create an enormous shit-storm, I canât imagine what would. In the interest of good order and discipline, the SecDef should ban Fox from being shown on military installations, and DoD and USAA should immediately stop all advertising on the network.
Same old story; Dems govern to improve the lives of We, the People, Republicans rule to protect the increase of the wealthy.
When Dems win, Republicans and their rich contributors whine, as if they suffer for it.
When Republicans win, we all suffer.
Except the rich.
Hereâs proof they turned our entire process of governance into a scam and a sham meant to protect greed itself from any sort of moderation., and it has been perpetrated right before our eyes.
It also helps to have tens of millions of angry, gullible fools whose jobs you can ship to Chinese slave labor camps, then campaign on a platform of âbringing jobs back.â They get rich for the former, and elected for the latter. It really is a pretty sweet deal, if youâre a sociopathic scumbag.
"Hard to believe that man wears a uniform " says the little rich boy who only recently gave up bow ties. I think itâs time they took young Tucker out in the field for a little embedding.
That was the corporate formula after Nixon sent Bush 1 to open the Mandarin Doorway for Sam Walton.
âŚmove to China, make it cheap, then blame them for poverty in the USA.
On some level, they are delighted by this. Now they can claim credit for an infrastructure bill, conveniently obscuring the parts they supported or opposed, and they can whine about Democrats running roughshod over regular order. Their base certainly wonât make a distinction between the two things.
Iâm not suggesting itâs a bad thing, or that Dems should not pass the bill. Iâm just saying that even the GOP recognizes that they can take advantage of this and not have to depend on cultural outrage issues that are absurd even in their terms.
