Sorry if that bothers anyone.
Democrats can't claim to be the good guys while acting like bad guys.

There was a bipartisan centrist coalition. It's likely to fall apart over all the Dem members voting to oust McCarthy.
Huh, why didn’t the Dems do that instead of voting for Pelosi twice? Hmm, we only see to clamor for bi-partisanship when the Dems are out of power in a section of gov’t.Quote:

Fair. However, who do you consider fringe? Pelosi is a pretty fringe individual, no?Quote:
