Good Evening Readers!
I hope everyone had a great work week. Tonight, I will be
talking about all the finger pointing going on in Washington lately. A now five days that the government has
been shut down and all that we have heard out of our elected officials is
blaming the other side and point the figure at each other. Democrats and
Republicans are completely split on the delayed parts of the Affordable Care
Act. There is an ongoing feud going with President Obama and House Speaker John
Boehner. Supposedly, an anonymous quote surfaced in Washington stating,
“We are winning ... It doesn't really
matter to us' how long the shutdown lasts 'because what matters is the end result.’"
House
Speaker Boehner is outraged by the quote stating,
"This isn't
some damn game, The American people don't want the government closed and
neither do I."
The White house denied the quote so what does this mean? Whoever made these remarks obviously doesn’t
understand how it works. Now, more than ever we need compromise on both sides. Give
and leeway on both side, Democrats and Republicans, will bring us closer to
lifting this shutdown. We need to put aside our pride and differences in Washington and
start cooperating with one another. The public doesn’t want the national parks
shutdown, national monuments shut down, and we certainly don’t these
destructive actions any longer!
Negotiation, Compromise, Cooperation
Thank you once again for tuning in and please leave a
comment or your opinion on these issues. Have a fantastic week readers and I
hope to see you again next Sunday at 8!
