Lucy, here is just one example of the republicans being completely unreasonable. This is Speaker Boehner after President Obama was elected, “We’re going to do everything — and I mean everything we can do — to kill it, stop it, slow it down, whatever we can.” This was merely one quote. I’m not really interested in the battle of quotes. Both parties must agree to compromise if our govt is to function. McConnel has been vocal on the subject. (A good example is two House Republicans attempting to stop much needed emergency funding to states who have suffered from natural disasters.) But I will add none of this is new. Back in the days of Speaker Gingrich a line was drawn in the sand. America learned that little would be accomplished unless one party dominates both the house and senate.
