Yeah, Don... That is about it... The Repub response has been purdy much like when Bill Clinton was president and thr Repubs held up a spending bill which temporarially shut down the government... It is irresponsible... Heck, if they don't want to participate then they should resign... Their response has left them very vulnerable to some very interesting mid-term ads showing them as being AWOL from their jobs at a time when the nation needed everyone to pull together... I'd love to write some of those ads...
