What the hell are we doing? Our country is sinking and our band is playing the same old song, rather like the more heroic one on the Titanic. We have rainbow songs, but Elmo has been, in the Russian tradition, defenestrated.
And specifically, what the hell has happened to Democrats in Congress? Are they even still there? Have they decided to take a long vacation and hope they will be able to come back another day when democracy is growing in the garden again? And who, exactly, do they think is going to fertilize and water that garden, and pull the weeds that are choking it?
Maybe, sensing their own personal danger, they have gone to their bunkers. Fight on, good people, I can hear them calling over their departing shoulders. Call us when you have won and it’s safe to come back to our committee meetings and pork.
Good lord!
