Today's Quote: The Simple Truth is That GOP Is To Blame

"The GOP has become an insurgent outlier in American politics. It is ideologically extreme; scornful of compromise; unmoved by conventional understanding of facts, evidence and science; and dismissive of the legitimacy of its political opposition. When one party moves this far from the mainstream, it makes it nearly impossible for the political system to deal constructively with the country’s challenges."

--Thomas E. Mann and Norman J. Ornstein in today's Washington Post (This is a reasoned and reasonable argument by people who lean much more to the right than to the left)
