The dysfunctional GOP is failing to govern "There is no plan. Republican majorities in both the House and Senate are so out of control that they’ve managed a feat once thought impossible: They make the Democratic Party look like a model of unity and discipline."

Consider who the author is.

The small lining of hope I see in this is that there is at least a 7-vote schism in the (R) party. I'm a big fan of people voting on the issue, not because there's a D or R next to their name. And no, Mr. Robinson, I don't expect "unity and discipline" from my elected officials. I expect debate, compromise, etc. Neither the D's nor R's have a stranglehold on good ideas, or good ways to combat horrible ones.

I would like to think you are correct Brian. But then look at these Democrat things that get passed, mostly by Democrats. The only way to over come that is with more Republicans.

I find I can hardly ever agree with a Democrat on what they want. The Republicans are only out of step about 20% of the time.

Consider who the author is.

Black person?

Educated?

Employed?

Scary.

Educated?

If you think this is the sign of educated, you have leaked far left. Perhaps even worse.

"As things stand, it is possible to argue that the most capable field marshals in Congress are Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid (Nev.) and House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (Calif.)."

Now I would not have sent the letter to the Iranians, but nothing wrong with the letter going to the American people. Maybe via full ad on Fox, MSNBC, CNN and the Wall Street journal,
New York and La Times.

You're leaking 20% left. Leak the other way.

Eugene Robinson. He may be all those things, but he's a partisan idiot.
