We Lose

Tom Brokaw (aka: The Designated Dumbest Fuckin' Guy On TV At That Random Moment) went on MSNBC to tell us all how miraculously amicable Congress will suddenly become as the Repubs take control of the Senate and decide to reach across the aisle to give the Democrats something in order to achieve some measure of what the fuck is this idiot even talking about!?!

The Repubs have to govern now?
The Repubs will have to compromise?
The American public is angry and fed up with the dysfunction in Washington and so we're about to see some resurgence of The Era of Good Feelings?

Seriously - what the fuck?

We're looking at 2 more years of Do-Nothing-And-Blame-Obama-For-Everything.  Because it's not enough to have both houses of Congress and 5 Robes at SCOTUS.  Ya gotta get the White House too.  So if voters are mad enough to act a little crazy and elect more of the idiots who're doing the things that're making voters mad, then it certainly follows that if you do more of the Making-'Em-Mad stuff, then there's a good chance voters will be mad enough to deliver a Repub Prez in 2016 - especially now that you know how to fuck with the election process itself (Voter ID Suppression) to swing just enough precincts to make it come out in your favor while feeling pretty sure your guys at DumFux News and all the Press Poodles on TV will say it still looks like a fair fight.

Don't forget that this has never been a fight between Red and Blue, or Dems and Repubs, or Conservatives and Liberals.  It's always a fight between Radicals and Moderates.  That's what the whole Checks and Balances thing was all about.

Still, it's an amazing time to be alive.  I'm sure it had to be truly astounding to watch the beginnings of our little experiment in self-government - it's no less awe-inspiring to sit here and watch it die.

  1. Bingo! Yup. We're witness to the amazing feat of incisive journalism so on its head that it can report on its own head-lice view of true democracy down there in composting-to-fertilizer territory at the grass-rot level. And as for Tom-Great-Voice-Big-Head-Lice-Pasture Brokaw, he even completed his in-depth analysis by answering his cell phone on air and sucking up to the white bread and milk lobby. I think that completes the milque toast career of Mr. TB. Slurp. Suck. Blech.
