Blog Credo

The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary.

Morons

I don't know what the everloving hell is wrong with these people.  The GOP majority craps all over them for years, so I get their desire to re-write House rules to empower the middle.  The problem is that these rules will hamstring Democrats in the majority, and once the Republicans regain the majority at some point in the future, they will un-do the rules. 

I don't believe Democrats should play the same politics that Republicans play, but they shouldn't hamper their own efforts with appeals to bipartisanship that have zero appeal outside of the donor base of a few wealthy individuals.
