On Politics 6/11/09: The Follies Continue...

This is, quite literally, a blogger's or newspaper columnist's dream. You have the self-sustaining, sorry spectacle of the modern-day "Gang That Couldn't Shoot Straight" (and oh, what Breslin would write about this calamity) continuing to clown around in Albany.

We have photo ops of Republicans holding up the keys to the Senate chambers, we have Democrats ducking cameras behind not only closed doors but locked iron gates, we have lobbyists asking the press for information as to what is really happening (talk about falling through the looking glass Alice), we have the operations of this state having officially sunk to a low not that possible, even for New York.

Have we reached the actual time in our history when the electorate will finally understand, through this mother-of-all-examples, that these politicians neither represent our interests or care about us? Will it take something more than this for all of you to understand this is not about the will of the people but the stupidity, desire, and demands of the few? Do you need better evidence to turn your collective back on ALL of these preposterous posers come November, or at their next election date?

For this, and a thousand other crimes previously committed, I say, for once agreeing with the French, off with their heads. Stop our misery and their miserable behavior for good. Better yet, perhaps we allow them to live, and sentence them to a permanent, endless loop of Senate television in their cells.

That would be enough to drive anyone crazy.
