Vote Sideshow Bob...

I think I get it now. Repubs in Congress make it impossible for the new Dem majority to get anything done by doing all the same things they recently chided the Democrats for doing, except doing it with more brazenness and assholery. That way, they can later mock the Democrats for being weaklings. Vote for the bully.

We've seen this before:

A TV commercial for Sideshow Bob is shown.

[scene shows prisoners going in a revolving door and coming out immediately]

Voice: Mayor Quimby supports revolving door prisons. Mayor Quimby even released Sideshow Bob -- a man twice convicted of attempted murder.

[scene shows prisoners leaving on escalator and ski lift]

Can you trust a man like Mayor Quimby? Vote Sideshow Bob for mayor.
