It is up to the President and the Congress to finally set aside differences, put ALL options on the table and sit down like the adults we expected them to be when we elected them. The days of partisan bickering need to stop if we are to remain the greatest nation on earth. That is not possible with an irresponsible Congress and a President who would rather go tit for tat.
Both sides are to blame for this mess. Neither side has all the answers. If they actually listened and talked instead of saying "No", maybe things would get better,
