…and an extra hour of daylight to enjoy it.

So, something truly remarkable has happened in a most unremarkable fashion.  After one of our country’s most disastrous years, at least since the Great Depression, every Democratic member of Congress, except for the pea-brained Jared Golden of Maine, did their jobs, boldly legislating for the welfare of the citizens they represent.  Unremarkably, every Republic member of both houses joined the dim-witted Mr. Golden in not doing theirs.  It’s not that the Red Team fundamentally disagreed.  If that were the case, there may have been a helpful suggestion or two from their ranks.  Certainly, they were asked to weigh in, invited to participate, to do anything rather than shamelessly and willfully obstruct.  If there is any other take away, other than a lock-step need to show solidarity in a meaningless power struggle over the pain and suffering of a desperate nation, please, enlighten me.  But, if you’ve got something, make sure it has a scholarly foundation, because these despicable, Republican assholes and Jared, (maybe everybody named Jared), have gone so far to the Dark Side that any trace of goodness or fairness, kindness or empathy has been scorched black within the useless vessels they inhabit to move about in our midst, (it’s hard to not get biblical).  Fucketh them!
