The Era of “Hyper Partisanship”
Written by Pat's Papers | Wednesday, 24 March 2010 7:03 AM
Bipartisanship is so 2008. The lead editorial in today’s Washington Post says what we saw yesterday when President Obama signed health care reform into law was an example of “hyper partisanship.” Not one Republican was present at the signing, because not one voted for the measure. Ditto the latest overhaul of the financial system. The paper asks lawmakers to return to “pragmatic cooperation” and urges them to encourage “sensible ideas” regardless of what side of the aisle they are generated from.
