Dear Readers:
What is an enabler? It is one whose action, inactions or silence allows an
action that is injurious to continue. In personal life it is one who buys or
gives money to an addict in order for them to purchase or score that which they
are addicted to. In politics it is one who stands by while something they in
their hearts knows is wrong goes on. You will find this when an elected
official stands by while one of their own party is engaged in something not
quite right and remains silent. This in politics is the most common form of
enabling.
We, in New York have two enablers in the United States Senate. Senator
Charles Schumer, who is safe for another four years and Kirsten Gillibrand who
is up for re-election this year. Their mode of enabling is silence. What are
they silent about? By constitutional authority the Congress and Senate must
produce a budget every year. Congress has done its duty when last year they
passed their "Path To Prosperity" budget. The Senate had blocked time and time
again any consideration of this budget. They have not produced any alternative
budget. In fact they have not produced any kind of budget since April, 2009,
almost one thousand days.
This is direct abrogation of their constitutional duty. Yet, both Senators
Schumer and Gillibrand have remained silent while this President lies to the
people about a "do-nothing" congress". The Republican lead Congress has passed
since they took control over 50 bills, including proposed budgets and the Senate
has yet to take up any of them for consideration. The truth is you have a
"do-nothing" Senate. That legislative body lead by the Democrats.
While in a way Gillibrand can excused for her silence, after all she hides
in Schumer's shadow and does nothing on her own. Schumer, on the other hand, is
the third most powerful member of the Senate and there is no excuse for his
silence. However their is an explanation. It is called "politics". He, along
with the rest of the Democrats in the Senate, knowing they have a complicit
media, are hoping the public buys the template of "do-nothing"Congress. Recent
polls show they are not mistaken in this hope.
Media silence on the constitutional abrogation going on in the Senate have
people believing that it is the congress that is doing nothing. The template
that the "tea party", conservatives, right wing radicals, take your pick of
invective, are blocking any kind of compromise. Compromise is not on the
table. The Senate's inaction proves that. What the template really means is
that the Republican will not give up their principals and give the Democrats
everything they want.
That is not compromise, it is concession, and the Democrats with the
willing help of the media will accept nothing else. It is time to return
Kirsten Giilibrand to private citizen. By her enabling, she has proved the
Constitution has no meaning, only party loyalty has meaning. You can put an end
this year to a "do-nothing" Senate in November. It is your duty to do so. This
is my opinion, you may beg to differ.
