And Another One

A bipartisan majority in both houses of Congress supports the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act while a minority in the House is holding out for the “Build Back Better” which a majority in neither house supports. Yet somehow this Congressional impasse is the fault of the majority. Could someone explain that one to me?

    Sure. Let me help.

    Call: 1-800-CNN-MSNBC and select the menu option: Uncle Joe’s Most Excellent Scapegoating Routine. If you are short of time and don’t have time to call I’ll be the spoiler: its all Trump’s fault.

    Which side does the press see as most sympathetic and will generate those metrics their bosses want.

  • Sympathetic or furthering the interests of the acceptable ideology or party?

    And 2 Democratic Senators have no right to block the will of a majority of their party, but progressives do.

    Government gridlock might be the best government we can hope for.

  • Yes, it’s a remarkably crabbed view of events.

    Majority = majority of the party
    Political center = political center of the party
    Democracy = majority rule (see above)
