In Washington, nothing gets things done like gridlock.

So states the (decidedly conservative) pundits who do not lament the failure of Congress and the President to pass legislation, specifically regarding the debt ceiling.

There are three branches of government for a reason. Congress does not take orders from the President, nor does the President have to follow suit with Congress. For all parties considered, the Supreme Court was never supposed to play a large role in federal or state policy to begin with.

If each branch wants to dance to their own tune, then nothing gets done, no one goes anywhere, and this nation will get back to its roots: limited government with private and local initiatives taking off where the federal government has failed, and should never have stepped in the first place.
