Congress in Reverse

Congress in Reverse

Jordan M Ragusa; Nathaniel A Birkhead

University of Chicago Press
2020
sidottu
After years of divided government, countless Republicans campaigned on a promise to repeal the Affordable Care Act, better known as Obamacare. Yet when they took control of both chambers of Congress and the White House in 2017--after six years that included more than fifty symbolic votes and innumerable pledges--they failed to repeal the bulk of the law. Pundits were shocked, and observers and political scientists alike were stuck looking for an explanation. What made Obamacare so hard to repeal? And in a larger sense: What explains why some laws are repealed, and yet others endure in spite of considerable efforts? Are repeals different from law-making or do they mirror one another? Why are repeals more likely at some times than others? What theories of legislative behavior and policymaking explain when repeals happen? Congress in Reverse is the first book to attempt to answer these questions. Jordan M. Ragusa and Nathaniel A. Birkhead examine when and why existing statutes are successfully "undone," arguing that repeals are most common when the parties are united on the issue--which was not the case when it came to Obamacare for the Republican Party--and the majority party wins control of Congress after a long stint in the minority. By shifting focus from the making of laws to their un-making, Congress in Reverse opens up a new arena for studying legislative activity in Congress.

The Divine Scandal

The Divine Scandal

Jordan M Storment

Jordan Storment
2020
pokkari
Have you ever felt unworthy of love or paralyzed by self-hatred and shame? Many times we assume God is absent when we find ourselves in deep sh*t; not realizing that God is knee deep in it with us. We are constantly trying to divorce spirituality from the mess of everyday life. Unable to reconcile life with God and the wreckage we find ourselves in at times, we are left feeling bankrupt.Every Bible should have a parental advisory label on it for mature content. If the Bible were an uncensored movie we would never allow our children to watch such "filth." The pages of Scripture are filled with stories of rape, incest, murder, drunkenness, orgy's, adultery, prostitution, deception, suicide, betrayal, violence, and a God who is actively engaging with His children no matter how deep of a pit they found themselves in. We have censored Scripture to make it suitable for children, and in doing so, we have robbed the story of redemption of its beauty. Concealing the truth with good intentions; not wanting people to reject God due to the scandals in Scripture, we domesticate the Truth. We smooth out the rough edges of Scripture in order to preserve the face of a religion. In doing so we have alienated the ones whom God is calling.This is a story about discovering God when the sh*t hits the fan. In The Divine Scandal, Jordan will take us on a journey to uncover the scandals all throughout Scripture and his own life in order to put the unconditional love of God on display. He will lead us to the edges of our capacity to love in order to discover a God who has no limitations to His love. Where OUR mercy ends, HIS is just beginning. May you encounter the Unconditional Love your soul is longing for as God meets you in the depths of your own Divine Scandal.

World of Shawn

World of Shawn

Jordan M Ehrlich

Createspace Independent Publishing Platform
2013
pokkari
This is the story of a lonely kid who develops a computer game, using what little of quantum physics that he has read, that renders game levels from maps of any format; the result is just a little too realistic. When he tries to combine this "World of Shawn" with a favorite game of his childhood, "World of One," he soon finds Worlds colliding, to the detriment of his friends. Shawn must step up and rectify things, rescue the princess and save the World.The interaction and constant dialogue between the characters in this story, as well as the humor and action intertwined, have drawn comparison to that in such works as "The Lord of the Rings," "Harry Potter," and "Narnia," so if a reader has an interest in any of those, as well as an interest in video games, either in the past or the present, it would be a safe bet that they would enjoy getting to know Shawn and his World

No Snakes in Iceland

No Snakes in Iceland

Jordan M. Poss

Createspace Independent Publishing Platform
2016
nidottu
Set in the wild edge of the world in the 10th century, No Snakes in Iceland is the story of Edgar, an English poet adrift in the world of his enemies, the heathen Vikings. Though far from home and seething with bitter hate, Edgar is recruited by a strange young man to come to a farm in a far-off glacial valley-and kill a ghost. Accompanied only by his confessor Sifrid and an arrogant young monk, Edgar rides to the winter-bound farm and meets hostile fighters, outlaws, berserks, a family torn asunder by a generation of strife, and, always looming, the fearsome mound-dweller that terrorizes the farmstead by night. No Snakes in Iceland is the story of both one man lost and lonely in the world, and of a world in the grip of supernatural forces it cannot understand.
