One of the best Shields and Brooks segments from the Friday PBS NewsHour particularly concerning the train wreck that we laughingly call our Congress.  I am not going to pretend that I can add anything to their intelligent conversation, except to point out yet again that the mere existence of political parties is at the heart of the problem.
