Okay, so I still don’t get the whole “deem and pass” thing…

…or, oh fine, demon pass. Notwithstanding the efforts of others like fraternal commenter Todd, who answered my question about why Democrats think it’s a good idea by saying:

Yeah, sorry. I’m just slow sometimes.

Or Smitty, who attempted to go highbrow on the subject. Highbrow, that is, compared to the Keyston-Cops-on-crack-like behavior of D.C. Democrats these days.

But, y’know, if they had gone ahead with the giant wooden badger in the first place *…that probably would have worked.

* You may have to click over to understand the reference.

UPDATE - see, this is why I never bother trying to understand stuff.
