This is why I giggle when people bring morality into politics in regard to the parties' treatment of the folks at the lower rungs. Ain't nothing moral in being asked to select who gets porridge and who gets cruel. The argument one should favor the truly desperate over the hard working but still struggling is no better than the argument one should favor the hard working and still struggling over the truly desperate.

And this is one of the reasons I pop in every now and again.
Seb, I disagree with you about - hmm, perhaps - 10% on this post, but that's splitting hairs and not worth the time or effort to parse. You pretty much nailed it to the wall.
With regard to this weekend, I want accountability. If this loser in charge of Secret Service doesn't resign this week, then it will feed millions of conspiracy posts, just making everything even worse.
