The current US gridlock is not a one-sided matter. Tom Send a noteboard - 22/09/2014 01:11:03 AM

Obama is deeply unpopular and a terrible politician. After the midterms it is likely that Democrats will rally around someone else (like Hillary Clinton) to bypass the President by cutting deals with Republicans to pass certain legislation with veto-proof majorities.

Political correctness is the pettiest form of casuistry.

ἡ δὲ κἀκ τριῶν τρυπημάτων ἐργαζομένη ἐνεκάλει τῇ φύσει, δυσφορουμένη, ὅτι δὴ μὴ καὶ τοὺς τιτθοὺς αὐτῇ εὐρύτερον ἢ νῦν εἰσι τρυπώη, ὅπως καὶ ἄλλην ἐνταῦθα μίξιν ἐπιτεχνᾶσθαι δυνατὴ εἴη. – Procopius

Ummaka qinnassa nīk!
