The issue being faced here is that the folder, directory was based on virtual representations of actual objects; documents in file folders in file cabinets.

Younger students have never seen this type of storage - files in an office, the card catalog at a library. They donâ(TM)t have the base frame of reference to know what these virtual objects are supposed to be emulating. How can you understand a file folder on a hard drive if you have no idea what a Manila folder full of paper documents *is*?

"Don't forget, Joe Biden pulled the same thing during the Bush presidency. Sure, length of time was different."

Standing up in the Senate and telling people they should do something IS NOT THE SAME as actually keeping a seat open until after the election. The Republicans did the latter, and actually *did* it.

False f*cking Equivalency.

That's not helped by the Democrat's insistence to play by the rules and try to reach an agreement with the Republicans, and the Republicans insistence to pull the football away, set fire to the house and p*ss on the doorstep, cackling all they way, in the name of Party.

F*ck every goddamn one of them. Under no circumstances will I ever vote for a Republican ever again. Anyone with an (R) next to their name shares in the stink, and will be avoided. Since that's apparently the only way to get anything done these days...
