Another quality session with Shields and Brooks on the PBS NewsHour.  This is how reasonable people think and disagree, laying the groundwork for progress.  There will be sadly, no such intelligence emanating from Congress in Washington, DC anytime soon.  I guarantee you will learn more here than in a week of watching the ignorant shouting heads on any of the cable news channels.
