(#4617) Today is the day that democrats can all get on the same page

      The talking heads on the left leaning and right wingnut cable news shows have all been dithering back and forth about how the Biden agenda is crumbling before their eyes. Well I just don't listen to them anymore because I know that the metaphorical sausage making process is a messy and traumatizing one. But in the end most of us all like the finished product. The same can be applied here with the infrastructure bills, voting rights protections, immigration reform, police reform, debt ceiling considerations, among a few items presently being bandied about. Some think that President Biden has too much on his plate and all of it will come crashing down on him and by extension we democrats.
     That is not my position. Because what President Biden has done is diversify and allocate responsibility for all these considerations to many really intelligent people who have the best of intents to get them done. As well Joe has maintained a keen interest in them but at a distance so that they can be processed without him hovering. But as we close in on some very real deadlines, Joe is now hovering. In fact he is calling all the key democratic leaders to a meeting with him at the White House today. Because as the process of getting these policies into laws is continuing, the media is whooping up scenarios of the typical nervous nelly variety.
     Joe has got this and if we would just let the democrats work their magic in creating the greatest set of policies into law for our working middle poor class since President Franklin Roosevelt, then the angst that is being fomented would dissipate. After today's meeting with the most crucial democratic lawmakers I expect to see a united democratic party willing to go the extra mile to accomplish the Biden agenda that he promised to bring when elected. The success or failure will be Joe's to shoulder and the democratic lawmakers are his vehicle for deciding his fate. The democratic lawmakers also have a stake in this moment and they should know that their careers are on the line as well.
