Perhaps you are also a member of it.

Democrats gonna Dem. Republicans gonna ReThug. We have a Congress full of old dinosaurs who think it is still 1965 and "gentlemen of good conscience" can reach compromises which, if they do not satisfy all, at least will not offend too badly, and how's your golf game going, Senator?

We have the spineless and shell-shocked (I'm pretty sure one of Pennsylvania's Senators falls into the latter category), the time-servers and the time-wasters. And the Young Turks who think -- nay, know -- they have the Final Solution. That's on both sides of the aisle, too, though the Solutions vary considerably. All doing their immortal dance, which to me resembles nothing so much as a carnival side show, and I want my money back, they promised me a tattoo'd lady and all I got was a dog and pony show.

Betrayed? Hardly. SSDD, my friend, SSDD.
