Yep. And until these members of Congress who are speaking up NOW actually DO the things they say they are going to, they don't get a pass. It's easy to talk big until you're actually in the confirmation hearing, basically being threatened by the president if you don't do what he wants. Seems like that kind of thing shouldn't be allowed, but here we are. No one has a fucking spine anymore.

I'm still getting over the fact that 96 **MILLION** potential voters couldn't be bothered to get off their assess to vote on Nov 5th. If only 10% of them did it could've made a HUGE difference.

It's an insane number and it baffles me. Why would you NOT want to vote? People who do not vote do not get to complain about the outcome.

Maybe they don't think it makes any difference? After all, what can 96 **MILLION** people do to change anything, right...? [lol]

Plato knew what he was talking about.

CyberKitten said...

He did! Even if I prefer Aristotle... [grin]

That's fine, we can prefer one and still acknowledge the other.

You had another post the other day where it says something like, if you don't care about politics, you will be ruled by (more or less) dictators. So true.
