It's Like Living in a Dadaist Hell

For someone who really thinks policy discussions and political deliberations, this exemplifies why I have so much trouble following the path of debate anymore. I mean, what's the point? It's so utterly disconnected from reality -- or even the day before -- that I'd go insane even trying.

On the one hand, I feel like the Democrats really underestimated the extent to which the Republicans are not operating in any kind of good faith right now.

On the other hand, I feel that the way Obama ran, with the bipartisan, we all want what's best for our country, rhetoric, makes it almost impossible to fight back against this.

But yes, it's maddening.

Oh like Parliamentary debate isn't exactly as ridiculous. (LD might be all right. I wouldn't know.)
