I don't blame the Democrats for the Republicans's inability to overcome...


...the 8 dissidents/nuts. That is a consequence of them having a razor-thin majority in the House. But I do blame the Democrats for empowering those 8 by joining with them in voting out the Speaker. Imho (and I realize that almost no one will agree with me) that was irresponsible and detrimental to the best interests of our county.

In this case they just don't have enough members to "get their act together" by overriding the 8 extremists. That requires some help from the Democrats, who seem to be gleefully rubbing their hands together and enjoying the crisis.

But y'all are much more dialed into all this than I am so I'll shut up on this, wistfully wishing for some real leadership to emerge.
