Bipartisanship Lost: Current Administration Falls Short of Greenspan's Example

A recent Los Angeles Times column by Jackie Calmes honored the legacy of Alan Greenspan, former chair of the Federal Reserve. The article highlighted the bipartisan efforts that took place during Greenspan's tenure, a stark contrast to the current administration. Greenspan's ability to work with both parties led to significant legislation and economic growth.

The writer's mother, a lifelong Democrat, also praised Republicans like Presidents Eisenhower, Nixon, and Reagan for their willingness to compromise and work across party lines. This sentiment is a far cry from the current government's lack of bipartisanship.

As one reader pointed out, the current administration is marked by 'lies, incompetence, and self-motivated aggrandizement.' The Republican Party has largely ignored numerous grounds for impeachment, including alleged constitutional law violations.
