Mashup Score: 1Last Helicopter Out of Saigon! - 11 month(s) ago
By JEFF GOLDSMITH In popular psychiatry, a classic passive aggressive gambit is “malicious compliance”- intentionally inflicting harm on someone by strictly following a directive, even though the person knows that they are damaging someone by doing so. In Washington, the most skilled practitioner of this dark art is Speaker Nancy Pelosi If health reform craters,…
