The Right Is Like The Newspaper Business: It Knows It Needs 2 Change But It's Chose To Commit Suicide First

Only the genius' who looked at Mitt Romney, and saw a winner, understand this political strategy:

The hard-line faction of the House GOP is demanding the following, as recent NYT, WSJ, and WaPo articles, apart from today's, have made clear:

• EITHER the Administration must undo the main legislative accomplishment of the president's time in office, which he passed despite filibuster resistance four years ago and which the Supreme Court has since held constitutional;

• OR ELSE all other business of the government will be halted, and the full faith and credit of the United States will be called into question, with unknown but likely bad world-financial consequences.

…In short, we have a faction making historically unprecedented demands -- give us everything, or we stop the government and potentially renege on the national debt. And it is doing so less than a year after its party lost the presidency, lost the Senate (and lost ground there), and held onto the House in part because of rotten-borough distortions.

You've gone crazy - you're not choosing your battles wisely:

 You're killing everything you believe in - and everything we need - in order to make a badly-timed point,....
