The cartoon seems very appropriate since I find both sides, blue and red, to be quite offensive.Despite Republican obstructionism, and Democrat arrogance, and Mr. Obama’s reluctance to seek counsel outside of his circle of friends, the economy has improved, the stock market is at record highs, gas prices have dropped, deportations are up, the corporations making money off of war are profiting, more Americans have access to healthcare, and Americans have a little more hope than they did in 2008. There is still much to do. Our Union is stronger, but not because of our legislators… despite them. It is not cynical to believe they will continue to work to make their opponents look bad in ways that hurt our nation, it has been their modus operando for nearly 8 years. The sad thing is too many of us will continue to yell at each other for THEIR mistakes instead of looking to each other as allies to find better leaders and a better path.Respectfully,C.
