Schoolhouse Rock Redux

.
If you don't remember Schoolhouse Rock, this won't be funny. But I do so it is!! Huh? Just read it. From Biggovernment.com, a Breitbart site, the guy is a genius.

”I’m Just a Law”

LAW (singing): I’m just a law, yes I’m only a law,
And I don’t know why they passed me at all.
Cause — no — one — knows what is in me
No one’s read a darn word,
I was typed up last night
By a 20-year-old nerd,
But Pelosi twisted elbows all day.
How I hoped and prayed they would stall
But today, all in all, I’m a law.

BOY: Hello, Law, why so glum?

LAW: I’m two thousand pages long and no one’s even read me yet.

BOY: Then how did they pass you?

LAW: The Democrats used something called reconciliation.

BOY: Recon-what?

LAW: It means they can write any bill and pass it whenever they want. It’s against the rules.

BOY: That doesn’t sound very democratic.

LAW: Actually, it is! In a pure democracy, the majority rules.

BOY: But I thought we lived in a republic!

LAW: Me too, kid. Me too.

So majority rule does count but only what it's convenient to the Democrats?

BOW said...

The majority of WE THE PEOPLE don't want it, so it doesn't pass muster here either

Majority rule is the order of the day, and always has been. But they've forgotten the MAJORITY in question is the VOTERS, not the Congressional MAJORITY PARTY!!!

The simpletons!!

So why is it that we are usually ruled by a minority?

Anon,
because we've allowed it, that's why. That old 'Silent Majority' moniker is all too true.
