If nothing else, the lengthy early morning post today should have given readers a clue that the most serious problems faced by the American people have been largely created by our own political class. The Beltway Democratic Establishment, having to deal with pesky progressives and do-gooders within their own ranks-- sometimes make an attempt to appear like they want to deal with the meta-problems behind the manifestations. The Republicans, who have crafted an establishment with no accountability save to the 1% itself, just laugh all the way to the bank-- and never look back. No doubt Boehner and his cronies would just love to put a "gone fishin'" sign on the Capitol and leave government to shrivel up the way Grover has decreed it should. But with Obama in the White House and the Democrats still clinging to a fragile majority in the Senate, Boehner's got to at least stick around and make believe the House is doing something. Just wait 'til 2013!
