Bitter Enders

When something just has to be done, and nothing gets done, the roadblock often turns out to be a group we sometimes call the bitter enders.

They thrive when there is a roughly even split between two sides on some issue. They love to demonstrate their clout by bringing things to a standstill. When no action is taken, when nothing is decided, they celebrate a victory.

Maybe it’s time to get something done about immigrants.

Maybe it’s time to let them ride in the back of the bus, for a change.

No, not the immigrants, the bitter enders.
