中新网评:美国众议长选举“连续剧”暴露美式民主痼疾******

  中新网北京1月9日电(蒋鲤)在15轮投票表决后,美国众议院议长选举这场“连续剧”终于落下帷幕,众议院共和党领袖凯文·麦卡锡最终成功当选第55任美国众议院议长。这是美国国会过去164年来耗时最久的一次议长选举记录,将美国“对抗式民主”的弊端暴露无遗。

  由于两党对立加剧、党派内斗、利益分配不均等因素,众议长选举陷入一场拉锯战。在此次众议长竞选中,美国民主党议员继续抱团,多轮投票中,一票不投麦卡锡,共和党右翼“强硬派”领头的约20人小团体也拒绝投票麦卡锡。

  麦卡锡的当选之路一波三折,除了本人的“政治投机派”角色在国会不受欢迎外,与共和党内部政治分歧关系密切。

  一方面,共和党党内反对者认为,麦卡锡对民主党态度过于软弱,无力对抗民主党控制的参议院和拜登政府,另一方面,因为共和党的多数优势微弱,党内一些影响力较小的派系的政治力量则被放大,有利于他们巩固自己的选票。

  此外,党内反对者也认为,自己的选票没有换取更多利益,希望以此作为筹码换取麦卡锡更大的让步,比如让他们获得众议院重要委员会中的职务。

  作为仅次于美国总统、副总统的政坛三号人物,众议院议长通常由众议院多数党领袖担任,选举几乎没有悬念。然而,麦卡锡此次为当选,不得不做出多个关键让步,其中可能包括恢复一项罢黜议长动议机制,使得众议长的权力被削弱,难以掌控众议院。

  美国有线电视新闻网CNN称,麦卡锡在这场不合时宜的政治勒索中作出让步,这种绥靖政策只会让极端主义势力更加强大。

  这场引发全世界围观的尴尬选举暴露出美国政治存在严重的对立和分化。在权力博弈思维的裹挟下,党派利益凌驾于国家和人民利益之上,美国两党相互拆台,陷入“为反对而反对”的无脑对垒。而即便是一党内,也会因为利益分配问题产生不同的小派系,相互对抗,选票变成了谋利益的工具。

  从国会山骚乱到打破记历史记录的15轮众议长选举,“对抗式民主”让美国政治陷入瓶颈,长期对抗势必会让政客们丧失客观公正的判断能力,其政治阶层是否有能力治理国家也会引发质疑。

  两党之争和党派内斗进一步放大了美国政治体制弊病,美国所谓的“民主”形象,让全世界大跌眼镜。鼓吹以选民利益为先的美式选举,变成了政客们利益置换的游戏,进一步彰显出美国“民主政治”日渐失能,不断极化的党争已使美国政治制度陷入死循环。

  House speaker election reveals deep-rooted problems in U.S. democracy

  (ECNS) -- The Republican leader Kevin McCarthy was elected as the 55th speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives after 15 ballots. As the most grueling House speaker election in the past 164 years, the election has highlighted the defects of the country’s "confrontational democracy".

  The election once reached a stalemate due to intense partisan strife, inner-party struggle among the Republicans, uneven distribution of interests, and more. Democratic Party members forged a close alliance, refusing to vote for McCarthy, while about 20 Republicans also declined to cast ballots for the GOP leader.

  Except for his unpopular role as a "political speculator" in Congress, McCarthy’s hard-won election can be attributed to turmoil within the Republican Party.

  On the one hand, opponents in the Republican Party believe that the GOP leader's attitude toward the Democrats is too weak to confront the Senate controlled by Democrats and the Biden administration.

  On the other hand, the political power of some less influential factions in the Republican Party has been amplified due to the Party’s weak majority advantage in the House of Representatives, which is conducive to consolidating their ticket warehouses.

  Meanwhile, these opponents believe that their votes failed to win them more benefits, hoping to use this as a bargaining chip for McCarthy's further concessions, such as getting them positions in important House Committees.

  As the third political figure after the President and Vice President of the U.S., the speaker, by tradition, is the head of the majority party in the House of Representatives.

  But McCarthy has made many concessions in order to bring the ultra conservatives along, involving what’s known as the “motion to vacate,” a mechanism by which members can force a vote to depose the speaker. The reported concessions will empower individual members at the expense of McCarthy’s sway as speaker.

  CNN thought the concessions he made during this unseemly political shakedown would only make the extremist faction more powerful.

  This embarrassing election, which has drawn global attention, exposed the serious opposition and polarization in American politics. Both Democrats and Republicans put their interests before that of the country and its people, attacking and opposing each other irrationally.

  Besides, different factions arise within a single party and confront each other because of the distribution of interests. Votes have become a tool to win more benefits.

  From Capitol riots to the House Speaker election with record-breaking ballots, "confrontational democracy" has become a bottleneck of American politics. Long-term confrontation will surely impede politicians to think objectively and fairly while their capacity of governing the country will also raise doubts among the public.

  Both parties’ struggle and infighting among the Republicans have further amplified the defects of the American political system, with its "democratic" image shocking the world.

  The U.S.-style election, which advocates putting voters' interests first, has become a game of interest exchange among politicians. In addition, it further demonstrates the malfunction of American "democratic politics" and the constantly polarized party struggle that has trapped the American political system into an infinite cycle.

  中新网阿拉善1月17日电 题:方圆30公里仅27人 探访内蒙古首个戍边夫妻警务室

  中新网记者张林虎

  “都得收拾干净了,新年要有新气象。现在我们守边的条件越来越好,商店、卫生室、图书室、快递投放点,应有尽有,新的一年一定会更好。”李文娜一边收拾“职工小家”一边说。

  兔年将至,内蒙古自治区首个戍边夫妻警务室民警徐乃超和妻子李文娜早早起床,“90后”夫妻俩将警务室和“职工小家”打扫得干干净净,用特有方式送上新年祝福。

  2022年年初,为了稳边固防,阿拉善边境管理支队决定在边境前沿建设抵边警务室,徐乃超得知情况后,主动申请前往一线,这也得到妻子李文娜的支持。

  事实上,从警14年,除去去非洲利比里亚维和的一年,徐乃超一直在荒原戈壁摸爬滚打,行走在守边戍边和堡垒户之间。他与李文娜从恋爱到结婚,在一起的时间加起来不超2个月。

  作为一名辅警,以及一名移民管理警察警嫂,李文娜承担着工作和生活的重任,也承受着与丈夫的长期分离。“他要去茫茫戈壁屯垦戍边,我们见面机会更少了,索性就决定跟他一起去。”

  一片天,一条路,五间砖房支口锅,两人一狗一台车。就这样,内蒙古首个戍边夫妻警务室正式成立。

  警务室驻扎在阿拉善左旗银根苏木查汉扎德盖嘎查,周边交通信息闭塞,大漠戈壁纵横,气候环境异常恶劣,人烟稀少。

  初来乍到的徐乃超夫妇需要对3145平方公里的边境管理区、103公里的边境线踏查走访,熟悉管辖区里的一切事务,担负着治安维稳和边境管理工作任务。

  “这里生产生活极度不便,我们吃水需要到15公里之外拉,警务室方圆30公里,仅有8户27人。”徐乃超说。

  为更好地服务农牧民,阿拉善边境管理支队在戍边夫妻警务室成立了“职工小家”,成为联系边境地区干部职工、开展帮扶服务的前沿阵地。

  “职工小家”位于中蒙边境线附近,是内蒙古距离边境线最近的“职工小家”。

  浇树、喂羊、剪驼绒……“职工小家”成立后,徐乃超、李文娜开始开展帮扶服务。经过朝夕相处,夫妻俩很快掌握了当地的基本情况,完成了从“外来客”到“贴心人”的角色转变。

  “额吉,这是我从旗里给您带的药,记得按时吃。”

  “叔,剪羊绒人手不够,您就说。”

  ……

  年逾古稀的敖云高娃患有慢性疾病,李文娜就用医学知识为老人义务辅助理疗;牧民巴图孟和家中人手不够,夫妻俩就与他结成帮扶对子,定期上门开展义务劳动。

  由于生活不便,夫妻俩又先后又申请建成党员E站、救助站、商店、快递点等。

  “这里配备了图书、医疗器材、生活物资,成了农牧民的集结站。”李文娜说。

  在牧民眼里,“职工小家”已经成为他们眼中的第二个家,一个处处体现温馨、凝聚民心的温暖小家。“这里就是我们牧民的娘家,有啥急事难事,首先就要来这里寻求帮助。”牧民恩图格日勒和乌仁说。

  “我今天巡查了23公里边境线,一切正常。”

  “徐警官,边境线附近有一辆外地车辆,你快过来。”

  ……

  “其实,我们是和牧民们一起在守边疆。”徐乃超说,农牧民在收获民警夫妻关心关爱的同时,也在尽心尽力地帮助守护边境安宁。

  戍边期间,夫妻俩每天都体会着戍边工作的乐趣和充实,他们还救助了一只腿有残疾的大型贵宾犬,取名“李富贵”,成为生活中的陪伴。

  在徐乃超和李文娜看来,边境的安宁,牧民的需要,就是他们坚守的动力。

  新的一年,徐乃超、李文娜夫妻二人依然行走在祖国的边境线上,用心守护安宁,用爱诠释责任,在维护边境稳固的同时,也收获着幸福、赞誉和感动。(完)
