With the president’s year-end deadline for health care reform looming, congressional Democrats know they’ll almost certainly have to short-circuit the legislative process to get the bill done.--------------------------------------------

If you are a liberal there's nothing wrong with that sentence because the ends always justify the means.
ReplyDeleteOh I don't know where to begin on how wrong that sentence is.
ReplyDeleteWhat's wrong?
ReplyDeleteIt implies incorrectly that they have not been short-circuiting everything in sight since they took over.
1. The president's year end deadline is completely arbitrary;
ReplyDelete2. Reform is a misnomer when it costs a trillion bucks and there are still millions of people uninsured;
3. "Short circuit the legislative process" implies they don't have the 60 votes needed to end a filibuster so they're going to use the reconciliation process to pass what everybody knows is a disastrously bad bill.
I don't know, but there is almost certainly something wrong with it.
ReplyDeleteThat's exactly what criminals do when they want to break into the bank. They 'short-circuit' the security system.
ReplyDeleteWhat can we do to stop them?
What's wrong with the sentence is that the editors at Politico see nothing wrong with the sentence.
ReplyDeleteSince when does a President set an agenda deadline?
ReplyDeleteWhat is wrong is that the person who wrote that sentence sees nothing wrong with ramming something up someone's butt......
I think he meant "short-sheet."
ReplyDeleteI think about the only thing that ISN'T wrong is the spelling and grammar.
