| 68. They keep saying "bipartisan" as if |
|
that makes everything alright.
It's not alright when they are all millionaires protecting their own interests.
And it is not bipartisan if there is no "partisanship" to start with.
"Let's see, you want your taxes cut, and we want our taxes cut. Okay, it's agreed, let's cut our taxes! Yay!"
This is not bipartisan.
