Plain Talk about our Congress

 Mitch McConnell's pledge to obstruct any initiative taken by the Biden administration - you know, the one over 80 million citizens voted for - constitutes legislative malfeasance.  It means in practical terms that our government will not function properly.  Those who support Mr. McConnell are implicitly in favor of a stalled, ineffective government.  

Yet another example of Madison's warning about the dangers of faction to our democratic republic.  Whatever happened to the loyal opposition?  Instead we have a disloyal, obstructionist party which protects its prerogatives - and cushy jobs - at the expense of the good of the nation.  

Unpatriotic is what we call that sort of behavior.
