End of September Bullets

• I'm trying to remember an instance in my life when I ever thought or said, "Thank God for the filibuster. It just saved us from a terrible mistake."

• My recollection of the ACA and how it affected the 2010 midterms is different than the conventional wisdom I see in the media today. My memory is that the Dems passed the ACA and then acted like they were ashamed of it or had to explain it away, They didn't run on the idea that this was a great accomplishment that they were proud of. If people perceive that you don't think something you voted for is a good thing, how do you expect them to react?

• To restate the obvious: the Dems have the White House and both branches of Congress. If they can't get their agenda enacted, it is 100% on them. Nothing else.

• The lefties in Congress have been the real team players during Biden's first year. To pretend that the conservative Dems are the adults in the room is just objectively false.

• Why in world would NBC think that Meghan McCain has anything important enough to say that they actually have her on Meet the Press? What's the media world coming to? Certainly not better journalism.
