Fact, Our Government is Broken
   
Fact. The republicans broke it and it is the republicans who are making the situation worse by refusing to participate in repairing it!

Fact the dems own all three houses.
Fact the Republicans may be saving our nation by not following the Marxists currently in control.

The left owns the govt and still blames the republicans because they cant get stuff passed. If the dems united the gop would be powerless to stop anything on the agenda.

2. What I think is broken is our spirit of unity as Americans
   
The two parties, and especially the repubs, place party above country.
Disagreements are an important part of the human decision making process. Our system is designed to take advantage of this by allowing all voices to be freely heard.
When we enter a world where those with opposing opinions are branded as evil at best we have thrown away our ability to make rational decisions.
I do not know how we are going to get out of this situation. 9/11 may have been an opportunity for unity but we know what the Bush threw that chance out the door.
I would love to see a reemergence of an American identity based on mutual pride of how great a nation we are. A focus on our generosity, knowledge, ingenuity, and the love to mankind our Statue of Liberty represents.
I am afraid the hopes of a better future are being dashed by the fears of the past.

I say the fear of a better future is being dashed by Obama and his cronies.

Careful there.

What a DUmmy defines as "mutual pride of how great a nation we are", is considerably different than how we define it.

Fact. Democrats can still pass nearly anything they want.

Who has controlled Congress since 2006?
Who has the House, the Senate and the Presidency?
