Why Can’t They Just Play Nicely?
Friday, May 15th, 2009I neither approve nor disapprove of the appointment of David Hayes for a position in the Interior Department, however, I do disapprove of this. It seems so juvenile to block an appointment simply as retribution for some other action that was taken. Now, if the Republicans said they were blocking the appointment based on Mr. Hayes’ past record, I could respect that. This “playground” behavior (which has been played pretty equally by both sides) is what has so many of us sick and tired of politicians in general.
