I like the line that reveals the Republican pledge for all to agree to be disagreeable: "In the wake of the tax-cut deal, Republican leaders in both houses had to pledge that they would not engage in any—to quote the ubiquitous buzzword—“backroom deals.” Since all deals get made in back rooms (there is no such thing as a front room, and leaders in Western cultures like the United States habitually transact their business in rooms), this means no negotiation at all." — New York Magazine, "Anarchists of the House... The Republican Congress is testing a new frontier of radicalism—governmental sabotage."
