From Politico:
A staffer for a congressional Democrat who came up short on Tuesday reports that a team of about five people stopped by their offices this morning to talk about payroll, benefits, writing a résumé, and so forth, with staffers who are now job hunting.
But one of the staffers was described as a “counselor” to help with the emotional aspect of the loss — and a section in the packet each staffer was given dealt with the stages of grief (for instance, Stage One being anger, and so on).
“It was like it was about death,” the staffer said. “It was bizarre.” The staffer did say the portions about the benefits and résumé writing were instructive…
Now we know the real problem with our Democrats – they’re panty-waist little wimps. For crying out loud, suck it up! Its not like we were all sunshine and lolly pops after 2006, but we didn’t need grief counselors. You lost an election, not a loved one…
But, then again, maybe it was a loved one? Maybe power and its privileges are the only thing Democrats really care about, and now they are bereft?
Well, is that is the case – then don’t get counseling: get on your knees and pray for forgiveness. Your ultimate business is not with political power in this world, but with the life of the world to come. Who is committee chairman won’t matter when that time comes around.
