More on Congressional Dimocrats’ Snit Fit

First, even devout Democrats admit that the unseemly sit-in on the floor of the House of Representatives was a publicity stunt:

After nearly 26 hours, House Democrats, lead by civil rights icon Rep. John Lewis, decided Thursday to end their sit-in demanding stricter gun control legislation.

As expected, they didn’t get what they were asking for – a vote on the “no fly, no buy” bill, and another vote on universal background checks.

What Democrats did get was lots of attention. … Speaker of the House Paul Ryan said the sit-in was a “publicity stunt.”

And it was — but is there anything wrong with that?

Progressives: utterly shameless and even stupider than they are shameless.

Second, after reading my article, Phillip Osborne wrote me, “Do these idiots not remember that one of their heroes, Ted Kennedy, was on the no fly list?” His astute comment reminded me of a detail I should have included in the piece (in which I also confessed that I’m now thinking like a Rethuglican, so perhaps that temporary insanity explains my lapse): Rep[rehensible] John Lewis, alleged leader of the Dims’ publicity stunt, was on the No-Fly List! Yes! Indeed, his inclusion there caused him considerable trouble and embarrassment, so it’s not as though the old fart simply forgot how sloppy and unreliable said list is. Delicious to realize he’s one of the folks this silly bill would disarm, isn’t it?

On the other hand, John’s a dyed-in-the-wool Progressive. If a few minutes of thinking like a Republican can knock facts out of Your Intrepid Reporter’s head, what does a lifetime of Progressivism’s nonsense do to a born moron?
