The audacity of cope

“Quibbling over recent history aside, Benen’s commentary brings us back full circle to the bogus but oft repeated charges made by Democrats and their obedient MSM surrogates that the Republicans “have no ideas” on the issues of the day and aren’t trying to participate.

As we have pointed out in this space on multiple occasions (apparently to deaf ears) the GOP’s Paul Ryan introduced his own health care reform bill last year and has recently brought it forward once again. There are elements in there which both parties could agree on if they wanted to start over with a leaner, more efficient reform package.”
