    There's a place out on the edge of town, sir
    Rising above the factories and the fields
    Now how are we gonna remember
    That Manchin on the Hill

    In the day you don't see the children playing
    On the road that leads to the Capitol
    National guardsmen that completely surround,
    The Manchin on the Hill

    At night my daddy'd take me and we'd ride
    Through the streets of a town so silent and still
    Park on a back road along the highway side
    Look up at that Manchin on the Hill

    In the summer all the lights used to shine
    There'd be music playing, people laughing all the time
    Me and my sister we'd hide out in the tall corn fields
    Sit and listen to the Manchin on the Hill
    Tonight down here in Covid Town
    I watch the cars rushing by, home from the mill
    There's a man in a shell rising
    Above the Manchin on the Hill

    I just remembered that none of that foolishness was why I came here in the first place.

    MTG, also a gaseous shitbag.

    Did we miss the Oregon GOP saying Jan. 6 was a false flag attack by antifa?

    McConnell is just terrible for a decent America. Unfortunately for rational Americans, the scumbag wing of the Christian Theocracy Party makes him look understandably moderate. Cruz Hawley Cotton Rubio Graham Jordan Nunes Gaetz, these pederastic homicidal maniacs are just trump without the history of abject failure.

    Sinema seems like she's just cutting in line to get her own slice of the pork.

    Few things are more irrelevant than the Oregon Republican Party. Maybe the Washington DC, Rhode Island and Massachusetts Republican parties.

    Massachusetts has had Republican governors for 22 of the past 30 years, but at this point the state party is quite Trumpist and Charlie Baker is doing his own thing. He might as well be an I.

    I’m also guessing Manchin’s vote can be bought, but the price will be mighty high. Maybe NASA can move its headquarters to Martinsburg or Charles Town.

    What Manchin appears to not understand is that one doesn’t simply “sit down and work it out” with Mitch McConnell. He has to be beaten, and that requires numbers.

    It boils down to this:

    A majority of Republican representatives, senators and voters have already decided/will decide that allowing a president to incite a riotous, armed mob to attack the Capitol in an attempt to stop the certification of a legally-elected US president, to possibly overturn said election, killing a Capitol policeman and destroying Federal property in the process, while getting off scot-free, is just fine and dandy with them.

    Amirite?

    Manchin understands. He just doesn’t care (until enough pork is slipped his way).
