Subject: Re: Dems and Debt Ceiling
They don't care. Not about the country, not about the economy, any of it. They've all bought into the 'Republicans are evil' (except the ones who haven't been Republicans for years but criticize other Republicans anyway).
They've got their tribe and they're willing to burn the country to the ground.
I have read that exact complaint (almost verbatim) about Republicans. Heck, I've actually said that about Republicans. And, in some cases, I still believe it (some in the leadership, and a subset of right-wingers). But that's not a way to have a discussion, so I am trying not to do that anymore. I'll assume you don't want the country destroyed if you can assume I don't. Then maybe we can have a discussion. Sound reasonable?
