Postcard From the Swamp #8
Well, you can’t say this is the doldrums here in the soggy bottom of the nation’s Swamp. The President has decided to upgrade us to a “cesspool,” or a “sewer,” whichever is more appealing at the moment. The GOP is at war with itself, and the Dems, bless their hearts, have come up with a new look that retains the geriatric leadership.
By a whisker margin, the Senate is going to actually have a debate on the health care fiasco, even as the House defeats two relatively uncontroversial spending bills (Intel and Veterans Authorization). And Ringling Brothers-Barnum and Bailey Circus closes up shop after 146 years. Truth be told, they really weren’t the
Greatest Show on Earth. That would actually be the one right here.
