Monk caught a little bit of Senator Kerry's wife speaking on C-SPAN today, evidently campaigning to the liberal Democratic base. She was talking about the evils of discrimination and unequal opportunity, and Monk was in one of his moods so that this grates on his nerves - like a rich Heinz heir gives a fuck about the downtrodden!
Monk cynically thinks about how fortunate it is for the Democrats that they will always be able to play this organ-grinder music, just as it has always been played by those who scam the people. We surely don't have to worry about these problems of inequality ever being solved - even with liberals and progressive in power.
Monk thinks about how at least Republicans, until recently, didn't even pretend to care about the losers. At least that is honest. Though, today, even Republicans put on a conerned face for the downtrodden - compassionate conservatism. And it is even more ridiculous coming from them.
