Ok, Dems are douche bags, too

Here’s partisanship at its lowest. Steny Hoyer is a top ranking Dem from Maryland. He introduced a resolution to congratulate the Maryland Terrapins men’s basketball team for their outstanding season. John Campbell, a Republican from California opposed, and used the parliamentary rules to make it really hard for Hoyer to pass the resolution. Why? Hoyer blocked a similar resolution for Campbell’s UC-Irvine men’s volleyball team. In the end, the resolution narrowly passed, mostly along party lines.

Here is where your vote is going in November. You will either support the party of people who like to be dicks and block stupid, feel-good resolutions that don’t cost a dime. Or, you could vote for the party of douche bags that introduces said legislation instead of something meaningful that will actually help somebody somewhere. The masterful beauty of it is that the Dems and Reps each introduced and blocked.

Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute once sarcastically designed the “’Tute Screw”. It was a screw that would go in no matter which way it was turned. No, it didn’t work, but the point was “either way, you’re screwed”.
