Chuck Shumer says the Republicans aren’t playing fair on the FAA:
“The FAA is in limbo. Airports are the economic engine of the small communities around the country, and that economic engine is now stuck in neutral,” Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-NY) told reporters Wednesday. “Under the cover of the debt ceiling crisis, they are holding these aviation workers hostage until they get everything they want…they have taken brinksmanship again one step too far.”
…
“It’s as if someone is holding a gun to your head and saying give me your money….,” he said. “You can hurt innocent people by not getting your own way.”
Whatever, or whoever, could have given the Republicans the idea that this sort of thing would work?
UPDATE: Good God, Obama is apportioning blame equally. The man never learns.
