The bar for petty, juvenile behavior has once again been lowered by House extremist Republicans who joined with Democrats to block a bill intended to protect gas stoves. This was a reaction to the debt ceiling deal, which despite all the evidence to the contrary was merely a deal to pay off the country’s debts that have already been incurred, and not one to expand spending.
For the sake of all that is decent and holy in the world: NOBODY gets everything they want in American Democracy. The genius of the system is that it promotes compromise when properly used. Stop embarrassing yourselves and everybody else by having parliamentary tantrums. NONE of us get all of what we want. Of the 500+ people in Congress, the Freedummies are the last people who will change this system.
Out here, Twerps.
