In Christian Science (1907), MT pretty much nailed the current angst going on in our Nation=B9s Capitol when he wrote:

 

=B3All Democrats are insane, but not one of them knows it; none but the Republicans and Mugwumps know it. All the Republicans are insane, but only the Democrats and Mugwumps can perceive it. The rule is perfect: in all matters of opinion our adversaries are insane.=B2
