立春，一起向未来******

　　作者：刘文嘉

　　天上春来谁报人，江山气象一时新。

　　第二十四届冬季奥林匹克运动会2月4日晚在北京开幕，恰逢中国的立春节气。此刻，不知有多少团聚的家庭围炉夜话，不知有多少重逢的朋友畅叙别情。划破夜空的奥运焰火、令人惊叹的开幕盛况，又将给多少人留下终生难忘的“年味”？

　　我们听到了中国与世界的文化共鸣。

　　2008年北京奥运会开幕式上，舞蹈绘出的水墨长卷、千人击缶的壮观场景，曾让世界惊叹中国文化的风采独具；此刻，简约、安全、精彩的北京冬奥会开幕式，传递出构建人类命运共同体的强烈信念，又让世界看到了中国文化的开放包容。当奥林匹克遇上中国年，当开幕式倒计时仪式遇上二十四节气，当“希腊三圣”的哲学遇上孔孟老庄的智慧，人们惊讶地发现，这二者之间竟能产生如此强烈的共鸣。立春中的冬奥会开幕式，不就是一幅“美美与共”的图景吗？

　　我们看到了传统与现代的水乳交融。

　　一朵雪花，从1924年的法国夏蒙尼飘到2022年的中国北京，穿起了近百年冬奥会历史；不同年代的竞技镜头，由黑白影像变换为3D场景，折射出人类现代化历程—北京冬奥会开幕式及其先导片传递出了强烈的“由历史向未来”的观感。它不再是一场一般意义上的大型文艺表演，而是以科技的力量、创新的方法，创造出丰富的观看体验、饱满的艺术效果，最终将中国梦与世界梦交汇在一起。它向我们提供了这样的启示：具有深厚历史与文化自信的民族，也一定奔涌着创新、开放的活力！

　　我们感受到了竞技体育与经济社会的此呼彼应。

　　新冠肺炎疫情之下，世界普遍呼唤奥林匹克盛会的到来，因为后者代表着克难攻坚的精神、寄托着同舟共济的热望、凝聚着命运与共的信念。而推动经济全球化深入发展，让和平、发展、合作、共赢的时代潮流更加强劲，一直是中国奉行的政策，更是中国务实的行动。的确，奥林匹克精神主张超越政治分歧、种族隔阂、文化差异，面向未来凝聚起人类的力量，这不就是人类命运共同体理念的精髓吗？“更快”“更高”“更强”最终是为了“更团结”，这不正是倡导天下大同、民胞物与的中国文化的主张吗？

　　在中国，立春，为二十四节气之首。立，是“开始”“发端”之意；春，代表万物复苏、草木萌发，意味着新的四时轮回已开启。立春中拉开大幕的冬奥盛会，是一种象征，也饱含着期待：冰雪运动日新月异、奥林匹克运动蒸蒸日上、中国华章日新、世界未来可期。一起向未来，就让我们从立春之日出发！

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.
