It is an idea that the consumer media loves that make Democrats crazy. The media insist on making the Democrats responsible for doing the work important to govern even when the Republicans are in charge of the whole government. The media push this false idea because the republicans push this false notion.
While the Rules of the Chamber’s rules marked the continuous resolution to keep the government open, representative Jim McGovern has taken this double standard:
I think you may take a recycling course in arithmetic. The last time I checked, you have the majority in the House and the Senate, and you control the White House. The idea that Democrats are responsible for passing a CR or a bill, very frankly, where we have no contribution.
I think it’s ridiculous, I mean you run to boast of this great mandate, put your mandate pants well and pass whatever you want to do. And me, and I, and I think you will probably have the votes because even the so-called conservatives of principle who do not like the CRS, I think they suffer from a case of Victoria Sparks syndrome.
Where on Monday, they are a no hard and Tuesday, they are a hard yes. They will give in. So, but the idea that in one way or another, being in charge means that you do not have to take responsibility for managing this place is absurd.
The idea is absurd. Republicans are in charge and they should be held responsible for what they do and do not do in Washington, but that is not how it works.
Republicans can be in charge without responsibility.
Democrats must make the republicans of the room responsible for the damage they make by keeping the hands of the CR.
If the Republicans want to pass it, they can do it alone.
