The bizarre nature of today's follies in Washington is that president Obama and Harry Reid have both said that they will not negotiate under any circumstances. For the last month, the Democrats have made been saying that it is their way or no way. It is a totally unreasonable position to take. Even so, the focus has been on the different deals that the Republicans have offered and not the total refusal of the Democrats to even discuss those deals. Today, however, we reached a new level of absurdity. Reid is busy shouting "enough" on the senate floor and Obama just made a statement in which he called for an end to negotiations. What negotiations? The man has taken a page from Nancy Reagan and he has just said no, no, no, and no.
If Obama had shown one tenth as much backbone in dealing with the Syrians, America would not have been humiliated in that mess.
