Re: Priests Risk Arrest for Offering Sacraments to Catholic Troops During Shutdown
There are too many people whining about playing politics when it is simply the other side doing what normally happens. In reality it means if you are not in power your perks are going to be less when the people opposing them are in power. It is about democracy in a society that tends to vote on things, and some people need to get used to it.
That was my point: both are working with what they have for leverage.
It wasn't a swipe at anyone. it's pointing out that politicians are going to be political. And it's the kind of stuff parliamentarian systems are built on.
