Morning KTC,
No matter how smart the politician, you need people WILLING to make a deal. These republicans will do ANYTHING to OPPOSE Obama, Their goal, don't give him 'a win', on anything.
Republicans have made 'compromise' a dirty word. Actually worse than that, a crime to be punishable by voting out of office.
As far as I'm concerned dem's have compromised tooooo much getting little for their efforts.
One thing rep's do better, draw a line in the sand & NOT budge.
I don't know HOW Amercans get representation anymore, Citizens United have made it unnecessary....
They simply buy/support the politicians to get what THEY want.
Over 80% are in favor of higher taxes for those on the top tier.
DO SOMETHING!
