| WHAT GUMMINT Used to Do ... Refuse to talk to or associate with, and whack with staff and cane members of the other party, Out-take from "American Experience Dolley Madison (video) Sorry for this clip quality. At one point I became so excited I nearly passed out (as you can see) from the excitement of thinking "what if ...." Yes. I will argue that this toxic atmosphere was far better than the "comity" we now suffer. No law passed without a fight is far preferable to the nanny state. If the Bladensburg dueling grounds were still active, a whole generation would today have no clue about the names Pat Leahy, Ted Kennedy, or Chuck Schumer. I rest my case. |

I think not.
A-holes on both sides of the aisle like to complain that all the partisan bickering is keeping them from doing the "peoples" business. Well' I'm a people, and I'd prefer that they stay out of my business. I like gridlock and I'm pretty sure the Founding Fathers set it up to be that way. The less that gets done in DC the better I like it.
