Well, the Old Hippies are at it again: Doing anything and everything to deflect from the utter failure (read: refusal) of the Obama Administration to keep us safe from Islamic terrorists. What’s the stunt-du-jour? None other than a staged sit-in on our House floor to protest the fact that Speaker Paul Ryan won’t bend to their will and hold a vote on gun control. Behold your Democrat representatives in all their childish glory, doing what they’re best at, sitting on their useless bums:

That’s right. The Democrats—keepers of the Flame of Power and Control—are stompy-footing the fact that Speaker Ryan won’t let them have their way and hold a vote to usurp our Second Amendment rights as well as our rights to due process. “Look over here at the shiny object, not the fact that we had yet another Islamic terrorist attack that killed dozens of our fellow Americans on Obama’s watch!” Maybe a timeout, a sippy-cup of warm milk, and a five-month-long nap is in order. Like after November.

Oh, yes, slavery imagery, right on cue. Shh…don’t anyone tell her who the real party of slavery is.

Not even a potty break? Like in preschool? Did anyone think to bring snacks? And Depends?

Perfect! That’ll be right around the same time gun control legislation passes in the Republican-controlled House. By the way, I’m guessing there’ll be no mention of all the murders and other violent crimes committed by illegal aliens and Islamic terrorists on our soil in the past seven-and-a-half years. Nope. That would be admitting your boss’s derelict policies, with your blessing, are contributing to the deaths of American citizens.

You know, my former-toddler did this very same thing once, on the floor of a major grocery store chain. I ignored her and she never did it again. We should do the same with these jackwagons.
