Is the Stupid Party Finally Smartening Up?

<![CDATA[For years now, we have had two dominant political parties in the U.S.: the Stupid Party and the Evil Party. The Evil Party sets the agenda and the direction for the country, and the Stupid Party makes a show of objecting, but ultimately gives in to what the Evil Party wants, while making a few minor quibbles about how some money could be saved here or there or about how the whole thing could be done more efficiently. The Stupid Party does not, as a rule, set the agenda either in the cultural or the political sphere; that’s the job of the Evil Party. Even when the Stupid Party gains a majority, it behaves as if it were in the minority. Now, however, the Stupid Party is showing signs of getting a clue. ]]>
