Democracy Gone Astray

Democracy, being a human construct, needs to be thought of as directionality rather than an object. As such, to understand it requires not so much a description of existing structures and/or other related phenomena but a declaration of intentionality.
This blog aims at creating labeled lists of published infringements of such intentionality, of points in time where democracy strays from its intended directionality. In addition to outright infringements, this blog also collects important contemporary information and/or discussions that impact our socio-political landscape.

All the posts here were published in the electronic media – main-stream as well as fringe, and maintain links to the original texts.

[NOTE: Due to changes I haven't caught on time in the blogging software, all of the 'Original Article' links were nullified between September 11, 2012 and December 11, 2012. My apologies.]

Sen. John Fetterman Hilariously Reacts To House's Biden Impeachment Inquir

House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) may have instructed committees to launch an impeachment inquiry into President Joe Biden, but at least one Democratic senator doesn’t seem too concerned.

Well, too concerned about anything but getting laughs.

On Tuesday, Pennsylvania Sen. John Fetterman reacted to the news by putting his hands to his head like Macaulay Culkin in “Home Alone.”

Oh my God! Really? Oh my gosh,” Fetterman mock exclaimed. Although he claimed the news was “devastating,” he said so while wiggling his hands like he was spooked. “Don’t do it! Please, don’t do it.”

Last week, Fetterman dared Republicans to impeach Biden and called the prospect “a loser.”

“It would just be like a big circle jerk on the fringe right,” Fetterman said. “Sometimes you just gotta call their bullshit. If they’re going to threaten, then let’s see it.”
