They're At It Again

Behold Republican Senator Jim Bunning from the great state of Kentucky-one time ball player and now sanctimonious gas bag-not unlike the rest of the hypocrites on the right side of the aisle in good old 'Foggy Bottom'. Someone explain to me how it's possible for one person-democrat or republican-to have the ability to bring the entire Senate to its knees. This jerk refused to go along with just about everyone else in voting to extend unemployment benefits for millions of people. His colleagues had to practically beg him to shut up and sit down. Vote the guy down and be done with it! Isn't that the way it works in a democracy? It's no wonder there's so much anger directed at Washington these days. Along with many Congressional republicans, conservative talk show hosts are attempting to convince us that the general discontent we are all feeling is due to the president and his policies. They're constantly bombarding the airwaves with their pronouncements that the American people don't want just about anything coming from the current administration. Well, guess what, gang? No one ever asked me what I think because if they did I'd tell them it's not the president that's the problem. It's congress-most especially that pack of 'nay sayers' who do nothing but sit there huffing and puffing obstructing every effort to move this country forward and solve the problems that were handed to us after 8 years of criminal negligence. But, as I said, no one asked me. That's why I have this blog spot. Who knows? Maybe the Republican Senate Minority Leader will stumble on this and get an education. Ya' think???
