March Madness on the Potomac

So March Madness begins today. The basketball tournament? Bah. I mean CPAC. The conference just gets lamer and somehow more bizarre every year, this allegedly marquee gathering of the nation’s conservatives; and this year, with the longest speaking slots going to an irrelevant has-been and America’s most obnoxious man, the trajectory is downward on a scale so operatic and yet so pulverizingly tedious that I have difficulty comprehending it. Can these people really believe they are accomplishing something? On rereading that sentence, I partially take it back. They are accomplishing something, all right: showing America that they are mad as hatters and thereby helping to ensure the election of more Democrats.

Republicans are just pathetic. We actually need two parties, or at least two points of view. What we have right now is right wing, and completely batshit crazy off the scale right wing.

I find myself actually wishing that the GOP will regain some level of sanity.

Right now, all they have is that they’re right on the second amendment (and DiFi is a disgusting piece of shit).
