HAHA! So very very true..
I watched some of Bret Baier also the night of the shutdown.. he had a guest on and I wasn't paying too much attention to what they were talking about because it was some kids sports thing.. anyway, Baier ended that topic by saying "Well, that's what happens when you live in a 'everyone gets a trophy' society"...
I was like "Ugh, fuck you dude" and went to turn the channel.. but then he followed that gem with this, a better, one..
"President Obama still refuses to compromise with the House Republicans to stop the shutdown from happening"..
the utter irony...
whining about living in an 'everyone gets a trophy' world... and then shutting down the gov't because you didn't get a 'trophy' after you lost and no one will give you one..
That's it EXACTLY! Irony is lost on them. Like Bachmann and the other rep who jumped right on the WWII vets pushing the "Closed" sign out of the way to see the WWII memorial, standing tall and all patriotic with them...THAT THEY JUST FUCKING CLOSED!
I mean you literally can't make this up and you literally can't make them see that what they did, has a DIRECT CORRELATION to the memorial being closed!
So we have two scenarios here.
1. They're literally incapable of detecting ironic situations they had the primary hand in creating.
2. They're quite aware of the ironic situation they created, but will plow through it anyway as if they didn't.
I gotta be honest...I don't know which is worse.
