The doltishness never ends

Charles Pierce on why we can't have nice things. As if procedural filibusters weren't bad enough, now we have talking non-filibusters designed to fool the rubes. And the morons at Politico eat it right up. Makes me want to go turn on Netflix and stream some more old episodes of Aaron Sorkin's Wishful Thinking Theater. Or rewatch the whole first season of House Of Cards. Now Francis Underwood, there's an evil conservative politician you can believe in!
