” This shouldn’t surprise many people, because with very few exceptions the Republicans hadn’t determined how to govern by 2006, after taking control of Congress in 1994. “
You know, I have known for 20 years that the Republicans didn’t like confrontation. However, their behavior since the dictator took over leaves me with little hope anything will change. The Republicans in the House & Senate, with maybe 10 exceptions, act like they don’t even care if our country is destroyed or not. I swear, they don’t even care.
The Senate is almost, if not literally a total write off.
There are some bright spots in Congress, but even then, more than at any other time that I have seen, even those are sometimes willing to go native on us.
I share your outlook concerning bright hopes for the future.
