WE ARE NOT AMUSED

Editorial writers have given  up writing about the substantive meaning of what's happening in Washington and taken to criticizing the act itself.
Americans are not panicked as they were supposed to be. No matter what comes out of these legislative discussions, if anything, they believe that the sun will rise on Wednesday, and it will probably be hot. The only Americans breaking a sweat over this crisis are the officials. The American people have essentially turned over the flap to them and were told, "Take care of it. I have real things to do. We'll deal with you in the next election."
