We Get Letters: Here Comes the Silly Season

Published on Monday, February 20, 2023 | 4:00 am
 

The Silly Season is defined as a period marked by frivolous, outlandish or illogical activity or behavior. I would delete outlandish and illogical and add self-serving for the definition of Political Silly Season.

You thought the political season was over, since the next Presidential election is November 2024. However the Political Silly Season is beginning, a time when politicians are either termed out, or realize that an opening will soon appear and they need to find another spot at the trough.

How do you know that the Silly Season has begun? Legislation is put forth by incumbents that sounds worthwhile and has words in the title that evoke concern; homeless, guns, firearms. voting rights, democracy.

Or you start hearing from or about people you did not know, who come in with large amounts of money and various degrees of name recognition

Welcome to the Political Silly Season
