Mitch McConnell's Mad Memo...

Constitutional authority speaks...

Dear Mitch:

Elections haven't worked, and therefore the Constitution must be changed?

What a SILLY thing for you to say! How exactly does that follow?

The premise that elections haven’t worked can lead to any number of conclusions.

For example. I could argue that since elections haven't worked, elections themselves should be abolished.

Or, I could say that since elections haven’t worked, the governments that they create should be abolished. That may not be far from the intention of some.

Might you be faking a ‘crisis’ to create a ‘solution’ as a vehicle that surreptitiously secures another agenda entirely, or are you too incompetent to know what you're doing? Why the shoddy logic?

What I want to know is ...

Why should the constitution become the salve of Republicratic malfeasance and/or incompetence?

CoH please ...

Happily BLUE in Ohio

And what I want to know is:

If elections haven't worked, and McConnell is in office because he was elected, can we just force him to leave now? He's the master obstructionist and things would be a whole lot better without him.

Here's an example of his truly disordered thinking:

America must rewrite the Constitution to force conservative outcomes because we the people consistently elect lawmakers who disagree with McConnell

Talk about fascist principles in operation....

But love the picture of him!
