“We heard the president say this should be a year of action and that is our goal. We join the president in this effort to make this a year of action,” GOP Conference Chair Cathy McMorris Rodgers told reporters here.

In microcosm, this obscure quote illustrates everything that is wrong with the republican establishment. If this woman and her colleagues were serious about taking a strong part in governing, she would have said this:

" We are glad to note that the president has chosen at last to join us in taking constructive action to pare back the burdens of bureaucracy and corruption in the federal government. We will watch with expectation to see whether he lives up to his stated intentions and joins us in bipartisan corrective actions."

She seems Democrat-inclined being from WA state, but supposedly she is pro-life.
