A pity.

Oh, what if politicians were decent people?  Working together. For the common good. Often reaching accord. Somewhere in between. Both sides getting something they want. But not everything. That would be a sign of progress. Of camaraderie. Of goodwill. In America, it seldom happens any more. Used to. A little more often. But now there’s a sharp divide. Many Republicans and Democrats don’t talk to each other. They are openly hostile.  Even hateful.  Makes no sense. But then, that’s the nature of politics.  A pity. –Jim Broede
