Any other country the Dems would be center-right. America is so messed up.

I was tempted to delete this, but I am not convinced that I should. The coincidence that only retiring or not up for reelection soon Senators voted to capitulate makes me wonder if I should let my senator off the hook based solely on his No vote. Waiting for a statement and then I will consider.

There will be some "Wow you can't make these people happy" sentiment but what's really happening is the Dems are beginning to reap the consequences of not really believing in anything. Choreographed maneuvers, too clever by half talking points. People have just had it

In 1932 the SPD Germans really showed everyone with the "We'll see how this Hitler guy does in 1936!" strategy.

@ossoff.senate.gov I’m very glad the rumors tying you to this capitulation were untrue.

I’m still holding some hope that they will stand firm and demand the healthcare subsidies. I note that my other senator is not on this shameful list.

My parents bought an encyclopedia set with an income windfall when I was an infant, and that is why I am at Zero on this list. Interestingly, I never owned vinyl until it was retro, but I have done the thing, so no point.

It is Not Good when the judge is indicating that your witnesses committed perjury and is referring to the record to show which facts and testimony establish that it is perjury. These transcripts could be seen again in Bar disciplinary hearings or perjury proceedings.
