Fifty One

[SamSpade]

Heard during the Dem campaigns all too often. Win these races, get to 51. Then we can get stuff done.

This is always what drives me crazy about Washington but mostly Democrats. You HAVE 51. You actually have more than that. A lot more.

How do I know that? Because I know what everyone knows. There’s 100 Senators.

If you want to pass something you do what the Senate had done for 200 years - make deals. Compromise. Find middle ground. Stop claiming to be the world’s foremost deliberative body and actually DELIBERATE. Talk, craft solutions.

Lately you’ve all decided the other side is EVIL and winning votes in the Senate is ONLY done by winning elections. It ain’t true.

Well collaborating and making deals and being fair and voting your own mind and not the party line is the way it should be, but unfortunately it isn't.

The Democrats right at this point in time have 51 votes in the Senate. They vote in step with whatever the Schmuck tells them to do. They also have at least 5 Republican votes
when it gets down to the nitty gritty. That is why we really need to get more than 5 Senate seats during this election, because the Democrats will block vote and the Republicans will still have some dick heads.

Our Congress is a clown show. Those people act like they collectively don't have two brain cells to rub together and create a lucid thought. They are no more than brainless Hollywood nincompoops who act the part when working off a script but IRL they're half retarded and largely depraved. AND they are lazy bastards.

But We the People are dumber and lazier because we keep sending them back. If in fact that's what really happens, because anyone who thinks FJB got 81 million votes is an even dumber POS than the fool in the White House. AND we're too lazy to rise up and put their heads on a pike, so the dumb and lazy tards in our government perfectly represent us.
