The worst of all possible worlds

Ryan-Murray budget deal doesn’t show the two parties can compromise, it shows they can’t

When a truly bipartisan idea comes along, you can bet it's a complete disaster. (See No Child's Behind Left Untested)

This was no bipartisan deal, though. It was everything that each party wanted that the other party didn't care about. It's two neighbors agreeing-- "OK, you can eat unclean food on the Sabbath, as long as I can use inorganic fertilizer on my roses," while ignoring the burning tree about to fall on both houses.
