How about not rejecting a UN treaty (which was ratified by 126 nations) that would allow disabled citizens around the world to have the same rights as everyone else. Would that be reasonable? Sidenote: Bob Dole(a disabled person) was present to witness his Republican compadres put that through with ease, and was disappointed ---of course because Republicans never seem to want to do the correct thing.

LOL, you should read more history, first it was Bush that Originally signed the treaty you are talking about, second, then new treaty had flaws in it that the Republicans had issues with. Mainly letting the Swiss run it.

Not having meaningless votes around 50 times to repeal a law that's not going anywhere -- when they could be doing work on issues like immigration reform? Would that be reasonable?

Immigration reform can't happen when 1,000's of kids are crossing a unsecured border and giving up to border patrol. Fix that first.

How about not letting the FAA shut down? (until it started to impact their own travel plans) Would that be reasonable?

So you were for it when Reagan fired all of them and replaced them?

How about getting on board with all scientists to take steps toward improving the climate change situation? Especially when the EPA leaders of the last 4 republican administrations have also urged them to do so? Would that be reasonable? To quit acting like science doesn't exist because of the excuse "well, I'm not a scientist".

Yeah, Obama putting all the energy companies under the will of the EPA, that will work when China doesn't have to listen, you do know we are all breathing the same air don't you?

That's the tip of the iceberg. If you think this stuff is no big deal, then you're more brain dead and stubborn we all thought. You can't defend any of these shenanigans. It's all indefensible.

I think I did a pretty good job!

Carbon is not the problem, it makes up 0.041% of our atmosphere , 95% of that is from Volcanos and decomposing plants and stuff. So people in the US are responsible for 13% of the carbon in the atmosphere which 95% is not from Humans, like cars and trucks and stuff and they want to spend trillions to fix it while Solar Panel plants are powered by coal plants
think about that
