It's pretty hard to work with people whose sole objective the last 4 years has been to make Obama a one term president. Not only did the GOP vocalize this desire but they acted on it by taking the filibuster to another level. Furthermore, these same people have been damning Obama for not being able to work with them during the entire election when in fact it is they who are unwilling to compromise. It is unfathomable to me how these same people now expect anything less from the Harry Ried and et al.
Politicking is one thing and statesmanship is another. People disagree all the time but the actions of the GOP over the last 4 years can described as nothing short of malicious intent to harm, wound, and cripple not only Obama but this country's ability to function and for some reason Republic voters seem to think this is OK and gridlock is exactly what this country needs....disgraceful.
