DC needs grown ups

Sen. Patty Murray recently stated she won’t back down on the "fiscal cliff." What kind of leadership is that? She would rather see our countrymen (and women) head over the fiscal cliff instead of negotiate a compromise.

We are lacking leadership in Washington. Grow up, boys and girls and learn to get along on the playground.
