How is this dysfunctional? The Senate passed a bill that the President wanted and the House passed it as well. Isn't that what everyone wants? Bipartisanship? Isn't this how it was in the good old days when the gummint was creating the "Great Society" and the Dems were controlling the agenda and bills were passed with the cooperation of "reasonable" Repubs? Hasn't the problem always been obstructionist, do-nothing Republicans standing in the way of progress? This is beautiful stuff, the way it's supposed to be, Dems propose, Repubs roll.
