Andrew Sullivan On The Shutdown

"I regard this development as one of the more insidious and anti-constitutional acts of racist vandalism against the American republic in my adult lifetime. Those who keep talking as if there are two sides to this, when there are not, are as much a part of the vandalism as Ted Cruz. Obama has played punctiliously by the constitutional rules – two elections, one court case – while the GOP has decided that the rules are for dummies and suckers, and throws over the board game as soon as it looks as if it is going to lose by the rules as they have always applied. [snip] This time, the elephant must go down. And if possible, it must be so wounded it does not get up for a long time to come." - Andrew Sullivan, writing yesterday on his blog.
