Irony for the Day

I dearly love irony, especially situational irony (a difference between what is expected and what actually happens).  The example I give today is NOT a political comment, just something that tickled my irony-bone.

Congressman Steve Scalisi, Majority Whip, is harshly critical of Senate Democrats who say they’ll oppose President Trump’s pick for the Supreme Court “before they even know who it is.”  He calls it an “incredible level of irresponsibility” and says that they should just “do their job.”

Where was Scalisi the last yer of Obama’s presidency when the Republicans were doing the same thing?

Or maybe Scalisi enjoys irony, too.
