Vacation Time!!!

"Coming up in 2024, we need a normal, cognitive president, and a Congress who wants to work. Come to think of it, we might not make it to 2024. The clock is ticking. The bad guys are on the move. And our leadership is on vacation."

Back when I was working, I had the biggest negotiation of my life coming up. Like in three weeks. It would be a huge struggle to get everything done in those three weeks. To miss the deadline would be catastrophic for the company. But that was tough toenails. My wife and I wanted to go on a two-week cruise starting on Monday. It was going to be great! Come back with a tan, and I would still have three days to get this huge negotiation finished.

This obviously, is a fictional story. Never happened to me. I mean, COME ON FOLKS! Could anyone be this stupid, this uncaring, to do something like this? Well, we could start with our Congress. They have a ton and a half of work to do, and very little time to do it. What does that mean? It means Congress will only have three days to get all their work done when they get back from a winter vacation. In the real world, to take a long vacation when there was this much work to do, you would be told by your management not to bother coming back. You would be fired.

Speaker Johnson - the people are watching. You are setting this Congress up (under your leadership), as a "do nothing" Congress. The Democrats are chomping at the bit right now, to take the two-seat margin you have, and erase it this coming November. What to do? Cancel the vacation, and work sunrise to sunset each and every day. GET STUFF DONE! Get those funding bills done. For the love of Pete! You guys work for us! Ukraine is starting to fall. The border is still a mess. Forget Mayorkas - that is a waste of time. Remember Article One of our Constitution. YOU GUYS HAVE THE POWER! USE IT!

By the way - did you hear about all the military age Chinese who have been coming over the border in California? Rumor has it, as soon as they get here, they have money. They buy guns. They target practice. Huh? For what purpose? We can't ask any questions though, or the other side will call us "racists". But Congress can. Meanwhile, the enemy could be inside our gates. 

For the rest of February, we will have a president who does not know what day it is. We will have a Congress, laying on some beach getting sunburned. Meanwhile, Rome is burning. This is no way to run a country. Coming up in 2024, we need a normal, cognitive president, and a Congress who wants to work. Come to think of it, we might not make it to 2024. The clock is ticking. The bad guys are on the move. And our leadership is on vacation.
