There Is NO Compromise At This Point. NOT ANY MORE! (Charles Pierce)

[kpete]

This has to be just the beginning, though. If he's really going to make Congress the proxy opponent in his re-election bid, there can't be any let-up. He has to be as stubborn as they are. He has to be willing to be seen as being as reckless as they are. If I were he, and there were that many left on the table, I'd have made a couple dozen recess appointments before lunch. The Republicans have chosen deliberately to paralyze the government at a very fragile time in our history. They have done so because they were paid to do so, and because their own ambition and petty dislike for a president has drained whatever interest they had left in acting in the national interest. This is serious political malpractice, and it has to be fought as such, every day, on every front. There is no compromise on this point. Not any more.
