We can have comity in the senate and let the newly emboldened right wing court not only take away the constitutional privacy right on which rests a woman's right to choose but start disassembling Obamacare, Medicaid, Medicare, Social Security, and other bits of Big Government, while they gleefully chip away at the apparatus of law and regulation resting on a robust understanding of the 14th Amendment.
Or we can keep all those achievements of progressive government by impeaching Kavanaugh or his rubber-stamp replacement and packing the court.
We can have comity, but the wife and I will be eating cat food in a dark, cold house in winter and a dark, hot one in summer, she will be going short on insulin and I will be taking half-doses with my inhalers, and we will eventually have to move out of our house and into Section 8 housing with the addicts and gangsters - until the GOP drops public housing altogether and my wife's one kid takes us in or we become homeless.
Do I value comity that highly?
Tell me why the leaders of the Democratic Party should?
