Thieves in the Night

incompetent thieves, at that

Creeping Galloping Incrementalism

At 5am—after a “grueling” 20 hour session…
how often has anything useful been produced at 5am after a sleepless marathon?  where have all the adults gone?!?  what’s the f’n hurry?!?

Despite promises of an open negotiating process, many of the toughest deals were reached in private conversations among Democrats, as well as White House and Treasury officials, outside the Senate meeting room session that was being broadcast on C-SPAN.

Transparency!!

...said a teary-eyed Sen. Christopher J. Dodd (D-Conn.)...“No one will know until this is actually in place how it works. But we believe we’ve done something that has been needed for a long time..."

So you’re admitting you’re incompetent*.  Thank you, at least, for that.

*yes, incompetent. It’s your job to know wtf you’re passing, isn’t it?  You’re a law maker.

If a guy—who knows absolutely nothing about shoes, except how to seal ‘em from shoe shoppe—called himself a shoemaker and made a pair of shoes with three heels and spikes inside, you’d call him incompetent, wouldn’t you?  If a banker sold a packet of debts without a pretty good idea that 98% of them would go belly-up, you’d call him incompetent, wouldn’t you?  If a loan officer sold a loan without knowing whether the debtor was capable of—or even interested in—repaying it [despite Federal Regulations demanding he do so], you’d call him incompetent, didn’t you?

yes, incompetent.

  1. “No one will know until this is actually in place how it works. “

    Just like Hillary: “We’ll have to pass this [the Obamacare bill] to find out what’s in it.”

    “Thieves in the night” is an insult to honest thieves.

  2. PS: One hates to criticize, but there’s a missing < /small > tag.

    No, wait - it’s the one just after “hurry?!?”.

  3. P.P.S: “what’s the f’n hurry?!?”
