Grayson nails it. Bipartisanship is for suckers. Compromise creates shitty bills. The American public overwhelmingly elected Democrats to implement their ideas. Those ideas shouldn't have to be tainted by any type of 'compromise'.
Daily Kos: Grayson: "Bipartisanship is a Weapon of Mass Distraction to keep us from doing what we need to do":
"Grayson: 'I think that the Democrats have been fooled now for months, by this, this fantasy of bipartisanship. Bipartisanship is a concept that's become a Weapon of Mass Distraction to keep us from actually doing what we need to do, to give people in this country universal health care, to give them affordable health care, and to give them comprehensive health care, because a lot of people find they get all the health care they need as long as they don't need any. And that has to end, that's not what America is entitled to, and that's not the kind of America most people want to see, but instead we get bogged down in these nuscances. I don't remember hearing a lot about bipartisanship when we were talking about tax cuts to the rich.'"

I'm damn near certain that if I played a game of 'got your nose' with Reid, he'd really fucking believe that I had his nose. Then he'd whine that he couldn't do anything until he had his nose back.
Reid has got to go.

Death penalty is stupid.
Study: Ending death penalty could save states millions | Raw Story:
"WASHINGTON — Even when executions are not carried out, the death penalty costs US states hundreds of millions of dollars a year, depleting budgets in the midst of economic crisis, a study released Tuesday found.
'It is doubtful in today's economic climate that any legislature would introduce the death penalty if faced with the reality that each execution would cost taxpayers 25 million dollars, or that the state might spend more than 100 million dollars over several years and produce few or no executions,' argued Richard Dieter, director of the Death Penalty Information Center and the report's author.
'Surely there are more pressing needs deserving funding,' he wrote, noting that execution was rated among the least effective crime deterrents."
