In american politics, everyone blames anyone on anything, along the partyline, even without thinking about the roots of the issue and how it can be corrected. I agree the power-plays and obstructionist behavior have gotten way out of hand. My issue is that the Democrats are every bit as bad as the Republicans, and yet the Republicans are demonized far worse.
Its like telling the wright brothers they can not build an airplane and rubbing it in their face each time they failed. But history only remembers that they did build one and all the people who were opposing the idea are now seen as naggers The problem with this analogy is that the Wright brothers didn't harm millions of Americans.
