I am tired of a "fighting" executive branch.
The whole aspect of "fighting" , automatically presumes that the person sitting opposite you, or "across the aisle" HAS to be an adversary..
It also sets up the agenda for just about everything you hope to achieve, to be met with fierce opposition.
A new adminsistration should at least START on a hopeful note, not as a "new sheriff in town, ready to kick asses".
More and more the HRH campaign sounds like a Revenge Match...to avenge wrongs done to them in the "olden days".
To be sure, there ARE things worth fighting for, but a clever "combatant" knows how to bend the will of the adversary without an actual FIGHT.
At this particular point in time, when republicans are at their weakest in decades, a democratic win should be a foregone conclusion, so bragging about how you are itching for a fight, when a win should be a walk-over, says more about YOU, than about your adversaries.
We need level-headed, calm discussion & negotiation...NOT wild & crazy fighting. We've had a steady diet of that stuff for far too long now.. It's time for change.. a change back toward sanity & confidence...and away from paranoid vengeance.
