my response to Speaker Boehner...

Dear Speaker Boehner:
 
You said, “Instead of working together to fix our broken immigration system, the president says he’s acting on his own.  That’s just not how our democracy works.   The president has said before that ‘he’s not king’ and he’s ‘not an emperor,’ but he’s sure acting like one.  And he’s doing it a time when the American people want nothing more than for us to work together.”
 
While I agree with your statement, I also need to remind you that upon Obama's inauguration the Republicans publicly proclaimed that it would NOT approve anything Obama wanted and the GOP also promised that it would NOT cooperate nor compromise with Obama.
 
So, the GOP first decided to become renegades and now the President is determined to be a renegade.
 
Neither party has worked in the best interests of American citizens and the President acts in the same absurd way.  There is a reason that Congress has a 14 percent approval rating.
 
Neither party is innocent during the past 2 decades.  Neither party has offered to compromise and meet in the middle on various issues.  Consequently, both parties have failed American citizens and continue to do so.
 
Change your tactics and work together.  Stop blaming each other.  You are both at fault.
 
Peter Stern
