But if you hold out the hand of cooperation, and get a foot in your face for your trouble, it's something to point to when it's time to ask voters to come to the polls.

Which, if you're in the House, is this year.

"Hey, I tried to reason with these assholes....I mean, you SAW me, man...and still they acted like selfish, whiney shitheads! If we want anything done, to help the people of this nation, we need people in the legislature who will at least WORK for a change! NO NO NO NO is not a solution!!"
