Sorry but bullshit. Both sides don't.
One side lied us into the Iraq War.
One side's economic policies crashed the economy in '08.
One side took control of the House in '10 and passed a record low number of bills, on purpose to grind government to a halt.
One side has been abusing the filibuster to filibuster every single Senate act since they lost control of it in '06
One side shut down the government.
One side nearly destroyed the country by deliberately defaulting on our debts.
If the GOP were bank robbers, "Both Sides Do It" would be the name of the getaway car.
Oh for fuck sake, the IRS "scandal" and crackpot conspiracy theories that surround it? Seriously? Are you still flogging that dead horse?
It is not a tu quoque because I am not using it to defend the republicans. I am countering your claim that it is only the republicans responsible for them.
The democrats participated in the lies that led us into war.
The democrats participated in the the policies which lead to the 08 crash.
The democrats in the senate failed to act on many of the well over a thousand bills which passed in the house since 2010 on purpose just to grind the government to a halt.
The democrats abused the filibuster when they were the minority in the senate.
The democrats participated in the government shut down by refusing to negotiate on many issues.
The democrats are just as guilty as the republicans.
You are the one beating the dead horse. You continually droning your left wing falsehoods in the hope that if you lie often enough...eventually people will believe. The difference between you and I is I blame all the clowns in the circus where as you only blame the clowns with the red hair......which is silly.

You push any population to the point they cannot survive they will look for the first opportunity to push back. This is evolutionary.
Why should I listen to him just because he is rich? When I ask you to listen to Bill Gates when he says we should be looking at consumption and not income you refuse.
The fact that Nick Hanauer is wealthy does not grant him supreme authority on these issues. He has an asshole just like the rest of us....and he has an opinion just like the rest of us.
