Despite surface exuberance that a global economic disaster was averted in the nick of time, the fact remains, those responsible, as well as the tactics they employed are poise for a repeat. Make no mistake about it, the Ted Cruz contingent is not done by a long shot.They will return again and again and again.
The GOP and the extremist they’ve spawned is a desperate bunch with few if any options left. The demographic their message appeals to is either dying out, drifting away in shame or gone nutz. After a thorough review of why the GOP lost the 2012 election, it reveals a failure to comprehend, the world has moved on and is simply not interested in reliving the 20th century.
With no prospects of turning things around, its safe to assume further extreme measures to derail progress and stability is distinct probability.
The failure of the Obama administration to demand the abolition of using the debt ceiling or a government shutdown as bargaining chips for losers, was a huge mistake. Nothing more could have given the world, the international investor and American taxpayers a sense of relief and confidence than if they were assured the reckless, irresponsible extremist had been disarmed.
While many would argue for identifying, isolating and interning the flagrantly foolish to nature preserves for the chronic moronic, political correctness would prevent this sensible solution from serious consideration. And that’s unfortunate, because after this latest stunt, one would think the world would gladly finance a space on the planet for “these types” to live, hunt, fish and inbreed without interfering and or becoming a drag on global progress.
Given a cabin in the woods, plenty ammunition, with wide open spaces to party on Saturday nights by the light of burning crosses, and the bastards will think they’ve died and gone to haven. They could be electronically tagged so the international sanity inspectors would be aware if one should wander off the preserve. Special laws could be passed to allow the manufacturing of moonshine and crystal meth to help stimulate the preserve’s economy and keep its residents pacified.
As inviting as the aforementioned sounds, it would be far more practical and expedient to simply remove the option of global economic destruction from the reach of these fools and the political opportunist they’ve voted to represent them.
Still roaming the halls of Congress, looking for cracks in the system to exploit, these domestic terrorist can and will pose another test to the very pillars of Democracy and it’ll be very soon.
Since another public bout with these morons could prove to be economically fatal, one can only hope Washington understands this asinine domestic squabble has morphed into a global spectacle that won’t be forgotten, because ”The Fools” are still armed.
