Democratic Majority + Stubborn Republicans = Nothing Doing

CBS News Chief Washington Correspondent and Host of Face The Nation, Bob Schieffer, makes a great point in his weekly commentary on the programme, which is also available to read online. The following excerpt though sums up the whole point nicely...

"...Who says there's nothing that two sides can't accomplish together? Of course there is - doing nothing."

Perhaps the Democrats need some backbone, and the Republicans a little humility and common sense, not that I am expecting any progress on those fronts from either side here.
