"The United States is not a democracy," said a Republican senator into the camera last night. "It's a representative republic." I was floored. To hear someone proclaim that the US was not a democracy was a first for me.
He was defending Boehner's refusal to allow a free vote in the Senate. But it explains a whole lot about the rigid and unmoveable attitudes in Washington that have caused this ridiculous stalemate -- which by the way, cost the country $28 billion and will again in a couple of months. As one talking head on CNN just pointed out, that's the country's entire school lunch program for a long, long time (can't remember how long, but you get the picture).
The thing that kills me about Americans is that they are now wondering whether crazy Ted Cruz might be the Republican nominee down the road. They don't even realize he can't be because he was not born in the US. He was born in Canada. Duh. That's the kind of research the lazy, American mainstream media doesn't do.
It's all so ridiculous.
