Funny that…our Italian friends complain about the mess that is their government all the time…and for good reason. But they have a tough time believing it when I tell ’em our so-called democracy is not much better. Maybe now they’ll understand? They really have a tough time understanding this fight about healthcare – they can NOT believe the “greatest country in the world” doesn’t take better care of its citizens – their eyes pop out like the cartoon character’s when you explain how healthcare (doesn’t) work in the US of A.
A loud, ignorant minority shuts down the most powerful nation in the modern world. Led by that ignoramus from Texas via Canada, T Cruz, they run our system of checks and balances right off of the rails. Their own party are afraid of them, and the Dems don’t have enough heavy hitter to counter, so they are running rough-shod over Capital Hill. Sickening…
BTW, not to disparage the mentally challenged, but how come several of these Teabaggers appear to have some sort of birth defect? Look at Cruz and that bag of hammers dragging Wisconsin into the sewer, Scott Walker. Them boys just ain’t right.
This is what happens when ………well……..you know what my wife says. I called my Congressman, Steve King, who is a ringleader of these morons, and suggested he not take HIS paycheck as a symbolic gesture of support to the thousands of folks he’s screwing with. I won’t be holding my breath for a response.
Here we go…
Divided government at its best, eh?
Grab a beer, sit on the porch, watch the sunset and whistle Dixie. Could be worse, you could be Italian,
Hey, I am Italian…at least my mom’s half.

Stan, may I start drinking now?
That’s the beauty of a round planet Patrick- it’s always 4:00 somewhere.

Probably wander around singing “I’m My Own Grandpa.”
Who would’ve thought the U S Supreme Court would be responsible for ending representative government?
My friend Ginny said as much in 2000: “We just witnessed a coup ‘d etat”
Never thought of it that way Charley and Khal. Makes sense. Shit.
