Some of these folks aren't willing to compromise even with members of their own party. Under any normal circumstances I'd have a hard time calling the majority party in both chambers obstructionist, but somehow they have been managing to do it.That's not really what the angry young man was talking about as he was speaking of electing a Right Wing speaker who would show what obstructionists the Republicans are.
It has more to do with the fracturing within the party, though, than it does with partisan issues between the DNC and the GOP. At least from my opinion.
But even there it's not obstructing, it's using your vote how you feel it should be used. Filibustering would be a form of obstructing because 2/5 is stopping 3/5.
And I have no problem with infighting in a party. I've grown tired of the lockstep voting.
