During debate yesterday about the looming -- but since averted, temporarily -- government shutdown, Maryland Democratic Congresswoman Donna Edwards quoted the White Stripes..."a little 'Effect and Cause'"
"You burned my house down then got mad at my reaction?...
It's just that you can't take the effect and make it the cause."
"...you built a house of cards
and got shocked when you saw them fall
well i aint saying i'm innocent
in fact the reverse
but if you're heading to the grave
don't blame the hearse
you're like a little girl yelling at her brother
cos you lost his ball
you keep blaming me for what you did
and that aint all
the way you clean up the wreck
is enough to give one pause..."
