You know, a BIG reason that liberals canât get things done, and that theyâre easy pickings for the GOP, is that theyâve apparently never heard the adage âdonât let perfect be the enemy of good.â Donât make adversaries of your allies for little differences. Take the win and fight the real enemy together.
I think itâs painfully obvious that Iâm not really a philosophical antagonist of yours, but you keep personally attacking me JUST BECAUSE IM A STRAIGHT WHITE MALE. This is just as bad as what you accuse the âother sideâ of doing. Sheesh. And, Iâm so smug Iâm not gonna bother having this discussion anymore with you since you keep picking fights.

Or
He's governing as he sees best for America...not a party or its lunatic fringe.
The WingNutZ (in keeping with the thread) will complain about anything for the moment. Gas prices, inflation, Ukraine war, leaving Afghanistan, infrastructure, hazardous train derailment response, bank failures... all on Joe's watch... while ignoring the catastrophic decisions made by his predecessor that made pretty much everything listed much worse.
I don't love Biden as a President, and seriously wish there was another option, but at this point, ole Joe seems about as good as it's going to get for a while.
I think you are making my point, about messaging vs. actual governing.

Excellent points. However, I must add that religious belief has been hijacked predominately by one side into a twisted morality that is legislating Medical care over personal choice.
One side is allowing people to choose, the other is insisting IT sets Moral Law. In the history of the world, attempting to legislate morality never turns out well. Alls well as long as your group isn't threatened, isn't it? Gay? Black? Female? You are none of these things Steely. Your above it all' smugness appears to dilute what one side is doing.
Anecdotal persecution of old white men is not the same as legislation. These crazies are passing LAWS against people based upon 'supernatural evidence.'

Interesting that only now the extremists on both sides are following through.

Correct. The rightwingnutz - who are “pro-life” - kill people. Such cognitive dissonance. And, again, two points: 1) politicians have a job to help our nation with food, shelter, medical care access but 2) politicians don’t have the knowledge base or standing to legislate what proper health care involves.

Indeed. What is funny/ironic is those who decry these educators and school board members purportedly trying to indoctrinate children and usurping what they see as the role of parents are calling for one form of government to enact laws prohibiting this other form of government from running the schools in ways in which they disagree â all in the name of individual freedom.
