2. They campaigned for a government shutdown.
call their bluff.

Yes, much suffering will ensue. But then again, much suffering will ensue as a result of compromising with their policy goals.

3. There is no compromise when one side refuses to even consider
the possibility. They stated their intentions as soon as Obama took office. It is their mission to see that he fails.

4. Right, because public policy is as simple as arithmetic
and just as easy to prove.

6. The onus is on the Repukes. Let them lead!
They can pass all the bills they want, but they still have to pass in the Senate. And they can't be the party of 'No' anymore. The people need to see what they voted into power.
