Thomas Sowell knows a great deal, but Real Clear Politics should retain No Sheeples Here for that crucial graphic. The Republicans do resemble a Charlie Boehner figure, tricked again and again by Lucy van Pelosi.
Sowell asks:

Why Republicans join such transparent attempts to rescue the Democrats from the political consequences of their own actions is one of the many unsolved mysteries of human nature in general and the Republican Party in particular.

In truth, political compromise means:

  1. Inside the Beltway, Lucy and Charlie switch roles across a spectrum of issues.
  2. The more firmly planted in the toilet things are, the harder they are to pry loose. A dose of Solomon isn’t bad.
  3. They have enough real or imagined scandal dirt on each to keep all decision making as distorted as a Sonic Youth cut for as long as a Sonic Youth cut.
