Kyrsten Sinema's courage, Washington hypocrisy, and the politics of rage

[AUFAN78 3,926]

In Shakespeare's “Othello,” the character Iago famously declared that "men in rage strike those that wish them best." It was a warning that Sen. Kyrsten Sinema (D-Ariz.) now understands all too well. Both Sinema and Sen. Joe Manchin (D-W.Va.) have refused to be bullied into changing the filibuster rule — a rule that forces the parties into dialogue and compromise.

In the age of rage, civility is repulsive and intolerable. Sinema made herself a reference point that exposed how unhinged many of her fellow Democrats have become. Remove that reference point, and only rage remains.

Thank God she has the backbone to stand up to her haters. The hypocrisy regarding the filibuster from the democrats is atrociously laughable. They literally stand for nothing except WAAC.
