Anyone else embarrassed by how bad the Democrats are at government?
They are stymied at every turn and are too weak and fragmented to just ram through their policies.
Say what you will about McConnell but if this were reversed he would have gotten this done instantly. Virtually guaranteed that the Democrats will bungle these next two years so badly that we end up with a Republican resurgence despite them being proven to be the party of zero integrity.
Seems like zero integrity is a better trait for a politician than ineptness at governing.

I think the problem is a majority of the Democratic side is their unwavering desire to maintain some form of moral high ground. The forever friend zoned.
the Republicans are just fine shitting where they eat. They are the political incarnation of an abusive spouse, their constituents the battered saying “they’ll get better” and “I like the bad ones”

Hell, I'm one of those people. Seriously considering moving to the boonies because of housing cost out here. Who knew a sleep, shit and shave could cost so much?
I gave you a like but I see some potential differences. We are increasing the carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. What overall affect it's having on our temperatures is debatable. But there's no denying that the earth has gone through ice ages and hotter weather in the past that weren't affected by mankind. Only history will tell the truth and none of us alive today will get an answer as to whether mankind actually did cause climate change.
Reports that polar ice has GROWN and the earth is GREENER than usual, I see this locally. No doubt chopping down the rainforests is bad, but meanwhile other plants are spreading and growing elsewhere.
I don't know if they still do but Royal Purple used to put a scent in their engine oil so when racing if you were behind someone using it you could smell it.
I feel like Democrats as a whole try to make the government work for the people and improve lives. Republicans weaponize the government for their own personal gain.
Seriously though... this kind of information is exaggerated to such a ridiculous degree. That does not happen like conservatives claim. It is in rare cases, in which the mother is in danger and shit like that, not just willy-nilly-sorry-uncle-baby-billy.

And as you see with the stimulus, the democrats have members that are progressive all the way to right of center.
The GOP only have a few moderates, those moderates mostly vote party line, and don't stray too far for fear of retribution. The rest of the GOP have moved far, far right. We're at the point where public funding for anything but corporations and the wealthy is called socialism.
The Democrats are what I would call stupidly moralistic.
In their constant attempts to do the perfect right thing for everyone they fail to get anything done for anyone. Without the Great to play the villain for them they don't know how to focus as a team.
A current picture from hermitville today. It's 3/4 of a mile to the FM road. Maybe I should build a rally track or an 1/8th strip...
I have more animals but they are out roaming
