Hellbound Coburn, at it again
What in the fuck is wrong with Coburn?
Quoted on news this morning, bitching about "pork"
as always:
"We claim that we're thinking about the best interests of the nation, but we're really just thinking about the parochial interests of our own states."
What's your fucking problem? Thinking about the parochial interests of your own state is YOUR JOB. That is the CONSTITUTIONAL FUCKING DESCRIPTION OF A SENATOR'S FUCKING JOB, EXACTLY AND PRECISELY AND COMPLETELY. If you don't want to do your job, quit.
This is like a doctor saying "We claim that we're thinking about the proper functioning of the health-care system, but we're really just thinking about the health of our own patients."
Or a teacher saying "We claim to be concerned with the quality of education, but we're really just improving the minds of our own students."
Politicians constantly complain that
other politicians are "divisive", or that
other politicians are "politicizing" an issue.
How do they get away with this shit?
You are politicians. Dividing is the basic skill of your job, and politicizing is the exact fucking NAME of your fucking job.
