And this event is the proof. You should pause and consider what would happen if a single state held up the Presidency for 6 months, 3 of which would be during the term of office.

I disagree, and I still say it was wrong. The president is a much more important position that affects the entire country, and even the world. Clinton could have continued performing the duties of president until the issue was resolved.

Recounts after the event by major media outlets say you are wrong.

I don't think so.

From where I sit in the middle, liberals are absolutely superior whiners.
UT, from what I can tell, you are nowhere near the middle. :p

And republicans are whining about everything Obama does, and holding up everything they can, even though the majority of Americans want them to step aside and let Obama do what he needs to do in order to fix all the shit they broke when they were in power.
