That line you repeated is 100% totally dead on correct !
I posted the article NOT as a partisan thought but what I thought was an interesting take on what happens in Washington....it is an angle I had never thought of before !
Recently on Meet The Press they replayed a show showing both party leaders sitting on the show actually discussing what they agreed on on how they may come to some sort of compromise...sorry do not recall who it was but it was refreshing !
This scenario that we have in Washington is particulary scary...the perfect storm if you will. Republicans hell bent on putting distance between the spending of the Bush administration and Democrats who are trying to push as much of the left wing agenda as they can and, in my opinion, leaning a bit too far left.
I will be the first to admit that it is both parties, despite my expressed feelings on this administration !
