As a parent of a 2 year old, I recognize the House GOP's tactics.

Here's my letter....will let y'all know if it get's published....I hold out no hope as it is the Fort Worth Star-Telegram

Dear Editor:

In the last 5 years the Republicans in the House of Representatives have refused to bring ANY jobs bill to the floor of Congress for a vote, and now they are threatening to shut down the government, refuse to pay our bills, and take income away from our military and other government workers because the Supreme Court found the Affordable Care Act (aka Obamacare) Constitutional and they don't like the ACA. They refuse any offer of compromise, their mantra for the last year has been OUR WAY or NO WAY.

This is nothing more than a temper tantrum by a bunch of grown men and women acting like petulant 2-year olds who refuse to recognize the needs, wants and desires of the majority of citizens (and voters who ARE in favor of the ACA), but instead they are bowing down to corporate and wealthy interests who do not like the ACA (aka Obamacare).
