You don't know that, you're merely speculating. This isn't Bush we're dealing with [ case in point ]

And that's the problem. Once you stop guessing "it won't get passed"... what won't get passed? What's the option being brought to the table by the "opposing team"? So far, with nothing being brought to the table other than rank opposition, it's just... opposition for the sake of living for an ideal. I cannot be the only person that sees that.

Time to be bipartisan or nothing will get passed. The fact that nothing has been brought forth in a discussion that says "Well damn, that would work too"... that's the true waste of time. A whole lot of speculation, assumption, talking... but nothing is getting done whatsoever.

I hate to bring my brand of "put up or shut the **** up" type of logic to this; however it's due time to do just that. Either stop delivering long-winded speeches on how you will not budge and bring to the table something that actually makes sense. That's on both sides of this and all other debates as far I go.
