Gee, Larry. How come you didn't share this with us? It's right in your neighborhood.
Love to meet the parents of these deplorables. They just killed a guy and she's worried about her phone.
Fucked up.
Right in my neighborhood? It happened eight miles and twenty minutes away.
It was all over the National news last Tuesday.
And you said nothing.
Neither did you.
I don't live in DC, not to mention, I wasn't here last week, Larry. Funny how you expect folks to keep up with obscure articles in the New Yorker, and yet something happens in your own backyard that reflects the racist, criminal, violent behavior you say you oppose, and you say nothing about it. Selective moral outrage?
Regarding that New Yorker piece, for someone who claims to live in DC and follow politics, you certainly display a lot of ignorance on how it things get done.
Look, why don't you just be happy that you got your modern day Jesus (the misunderstood counterfeiter, former armed robber, now saintly father of four) and that the Roman guard (Minneapolis police) is fittingly on trial this Passion week.
Quick, where's "Reverend" Al Sharpton? Outside that Minnesota courthouse kneeling in prayer and giving the family advice on how to spend the $27 million? He can tell you how things work. He'll show that his kind of zealotry (unlike yours) will garner (did I say, "Garner"?) attention, and can line family pockets with money. And while it has gotten him money, fame, and the appearance of a leader, those he claims to want to lead to the promised land somehow still get left behind. And then the next "real crisis" in "our community", as the hardly inclusive Al likes to call it, will arise, and he'll be there to monetize it some way.
If Al was all about justice and peace he'd be in DC finding a way to end such savagery as took place last week. (Can I say, savagery without judgement?) But Al knows that there is no money in protesting that kind of racist and unjust behavior. So, that's a no go.
Al can tell you how it politics really works; he knows that you can take or you can give, but it is the rare pol who will do both. Givers fade quickly. The takers are everywhere to be seen, and they stay on the scene, in act after act of this ongoing morality play. Al is there today, to see what he can take.
But the give-and-takers? They are working and getting things done. Things that matter to MOST people.
Keep whining, because that's your thing. But most people will be happy, and are happy, with the direction that Mr. Biden is moving, and the way he is doing it. 55% approval rating and rising. And if the bill is worth passing, it will get passed by those who know how to get things done.
WVA Joe? Is not a moderate or a liberal. He's just a guy who inherited a great position of power because there are too many in the Senate right now who like to play the zero sum game of win at all costs. Like you.
If that bill is going to pass, WVA Joe may need White House Joe to pay him a visit, but this is how the sausage gets made. It's sausage. It's not gluten free and it's not vegan. It's sausage.
Deal wit' it, Bama.
