Washington needs reality check

Hey, Washington. How about hitting the dictionary? Look up cooperation, flexibility, compromise, assumption and reality.

And while you’re at it, figure out the difference between “I want” and “I need.” Quite possibly if you recycled desks, chairs and buildings it would probably affect global warming.

I keep wondering where common sense went, it certainly isn’t in Washington.
