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.

探访中国残疾人游泳队集训:年轻队员期待冲击奥运******

  中新网北京1月22日电 题:探访中国残疾人游泳队集训:年轻队员期待冲击奥运

  作者 郝凌宇

  步入中国残疾人体育运动管理中心的游泳馆,"啪啪"的有节奏拍水声马上将人的注意力吸引到泳池边。泳池中,一位独臂运动员的手臂划出大大的弧线,拍击水面,划水向前。

  这是中国残疾人游泳队运动员伍洪良正在泳池中训练。今年春节期间,中国残疾人游泳队正在此处集训,备战2023年的各项国际赛事,力争2024年巴黎残奥会的参赛资格。

  游泳同田径并列为竞技体育之本。中国残奥代表团曾连续五次取得残奥会金牌榜、奖牌榜双料第一,其中游泳项目是夺金"大户"。在东京残奥会上,游泳队获得19金19银18铜共56枚奖牌,成为该项目金牌奖牌双榜榜首,同时打破了逾10项世界纪录,在奖牌数量和质量上均取得了不俗成绩。

  对于在此集训的几位年轻选手来说,游泳队过往成绩是压力也是动力。拿下资格赛,参加残奥会并冲击金牌是所有集训运动员的目标,而伍洪良是当中更为迫切的一位。

  来自贵州的伍洪良此前曾斩获陕西全国残运会男子S8级100米蝶泳金牌,练习游泳的十余年生涯中累计收获逾80枚奖牌。从市队到省队他一直训练不辍,一步一个脚印地进步,最终被国家队选中,参加了本次集训。“刚开始学游泳比较难,但每次看到别人游在前面我就会很不服气,就想让自己成为那个最快的人。”

  对于即将到来的世界残奥游泳系列赛,伍洪良显得很有信心。他表示教练团队和保障团队都进行了充分准备,给运动员提供助力。自己将在国际比赛中完成锻炼和定级,争取在杭州亚残会上取得好成绩。

  来自福建漳州的卢燕琳今年16岁,是参加此次集训中年龄最小的游泳队员。她曾在陕西全国残运会上斩获三银三铜,来到国家队参加集训后,她对自己有了新要求:“之前比赛没拿到第一感觉很可惜,我觉得集训我还可以再努力一点,该认真的时候就得认真。”

  对于第一次参加国家队集训的她来说,教练系统的动作纠正和战术指导、参赛级别的提升、比赛对手的竞技水平都给她留下了深刻印象。“能进国家队是我们运动员至高无上的荣誉,我很高兴,也特别珍惜这一次机会。”

  卢燕琳说自己很喜欢游泳,所以对身边年纪稍大的运动员充满羡慕:“我看很多运动员都比我大,坚持游了很长时间,我特别羡慕他们(能一直参加比赛)。我相信自己也可以做到。”

  2001年出生的郭金城此前曾有在运动管理中心参加训练的经历。他坦言得知今年无法和家人过年时多少有些遗憾,但自己清楚不训练就没办法保持竞技状态。“进入泳池后人感到轻松,也就不会想太多。”

  不同特点、不同性格的运动员对教练团队来说是不同的挑战。对已有十余年残疾人游泳执教经历的游泳队教练刘韬来说,看到年轻运动员能努力训练是十分开心的。他表示,很多残疾人在开始接触运动时会有些内向或自卑,但是通过一段时间的体育训练后,运动员从生理到心理都会有很大的改变,对其生活也有很大帮助。

  中国残疾人体育运动管理中心竞训一部副部长高巍表示,本次集训时间比较短,所以不会要求年轻选手马上找回参加全国残运会的竞技状态,期待新队员能够通过训练逐渐找到感觉,先实现“小目标”。

  “残疾人运动员有自己的特点。这1个月是我们和新队员相互了解的磨合期,接下来我们会综合考量运动员的不同个性、不同残疾程度、不同的心理抗压能力,一人一案制定合适的训练计划。”高巍说。

  离开游泳馆时,上午的训练已经结束。离开场馆的卢燕琳笑着朝记者招手比心,提醒众人一群年轻运动员已经在团圆的春节开启了对奥运梦想的追逐。(完)
