LAME DUCK

THERE'S TALK TODAY ABOUT OUR PRESIDENT AND OUR CONGRESS AS LAME DUCKS. BECAUSE HE CANNOT BE RE-ELECTED, FOR THE REMAINING TWO YEARS OF HIS PRESIDENCY, IN WHICH CONTROL OF CONGRESS RESIDES WITH THE OPPOSING POLITICAL PARTY, OUR COMMANDER IN CHIEF IS A LAME DUCK. HIS POWER IS WEAKENED. BUT WITH NOTHING TO LOOSE, HE COULD ATTEMPT SOME FANCY FOOTWORK AND TRY TO AFFECT SOME OF HIS CONSERVATIVE PROGRAMS AND IDEAS WITHOUT SUFFERING SERIOUS CONSEQUENCES. LAME, WILL THE PRESIDENTIAL DUCK GO ON THE OFFENSE? DURING THE TWO MONTHS UNTIL THE OPPOSITION TAKES CONTROL OF THE HILL, THE INCUMBENT CONGRESS IS ALSO A LAME DUCK. 'PRETTY MUCH INEFFECTIVE ' ALSO DEFINES THEIR CONDITION IN LIMBO. BUT INJURED, WILL THE CONGRESSIONAL DUCKS CARRY ON OR JUST CUT AND RUN?

COUNSELORS, THERAPISTS, PSYCHOLOGISTS AND PSYCHIATRISTS BANDY ABOUT THE PHRASE " COGNITIVE PROCESSING IMPAIRMENT" TO EXPLAIN CONFUSED AND INEFFECTIVE BEHAVIOR. BLUNTLY PUT, NOW IS NOT THE TIME FOR THE LAME DUCKS IN WASHINGTON TO BE ADDLEPATED. BECAUSE I BELIEVE THAT EVOLUTION IS INTELLIGENT DESIGN, THERE'S NO TIME LIKE THE PRESENT FOR GIFTED, INTELLIGENT, LEADERS IN CONGRESS AND THE WHITE HOUSE TO PROVE WHAT THEIR HIGHER POWERS OF REASONING ARE CAPABLE OF ACHIEVING. EVEN LAME DUCKS CAN QUACK LOUDLY.
