Re: That is another way to put the same thing
Again Tony beat me to the punch! Ditto what he said: The Democrats are shut out of policy making, so "the question of motivations where policy is concerned" is an empty question.
Politics is a very human thing. After the November election Republicans went on a gleeful rampage, braying about how Democrats could pound sand and were rendered impotent and irrelevant by the election. What else is left but to wait for the chance to say "I told you so!"?
Chickens do come home to roost. Just about every time.
