Quote:Oh you sweet summer child. You must have missed the last eight years. Zero attempt to work together while actively trying to shut down the entire government. Republicans that complain about Dems skipping the inauguration are just a little touched.


At least you didn't try to deny that the right thinks of left as their enemy.

 

The Congress has the power of the purse, heaven forbid they actually use a little bit of their power to push back against a President who does everything by executive fiat. Obama was unwilling to work within the legislative process when he couldn't get his way so he did it all by executive orders. Lucky for us, most of that will be rescinded in the next 48 hours, most of his "legacy" will be erased in a day and tossed in the dustbin of history. A government shutdown is not the end to the world either. We used to have them all the time, it's fine.
