(26,549 posts)On those issues, the debate becomes whether or not those are actually good or bad. That debate requires moving beyond a headline designed to enrage. Is aid to the rebels in Syria good or bad? Going to require more than a sentence to discuss.
So while not everything on that list is the fault of Congress, the vast majority are the fault of Congress, or can be fixed by a better Congress.
So instead of laying that entire list on Obama, how 'bout we Democrats stop being fucking morons that ignore everything below the top-of-the-ticket? That way we can get better Congresspeople and actually tackle what's in the OP. Today's city councilperson could be tomorrow's House majority leader. Republicans get this, and work all up and down the ballot. We don't.
But folks like the OP really don't want to work to fix the problems. They want the problems to be fixed by others.
