I am in the kitchen and the flames are in the back corner of the house. Since the fire should not reach me
for awhile, I am going to sit here at the table and write an extremely strong worded letter to the fire department insisting they address this problem ASAP. And because I am in some distress I will not even
eat my lunch sandwich before I head out to the post office.
AARGH!
I guess my frustration is showing. Lack of mobility is not helping. Arousal of this nation is too slow for the time we have left. I do appreciate the many who are trying, but we need so much more.

Good metaphor by the way.
I guess it didnt work the first time, but Trumps polling at 35 percent approval, so lets distract with Schumer

This is one thing that Democrats can do when we do not have a majority in any of the branches of Government. Jamie Raskin mentioned this weeks ago.
So have at it on all of the democrats that are signing onto these letters. And keep bashing Schumer for getting the word out and putting the Democrats concerns on record.

(15,777 posts)You have SO WELL illustrated what I think so many of us are thinking. Bravo! And welcome to DU.
We see it happening, and we see nothing being done, and we're all just astonished. We are all scared shitless while the leaders - certainly the Republicans, but also the Democrats - sit and watch and send those "strongly worded letters" that do absolutely nothing.
