I was right there with him until the last line turned the whole thing into a political side-show. Then it turned into a facepalm moment.
It doesn't really matter who it started under. They both would have done the same thing and people are going to blame the opposite party that they "represent" regardless of who's "fault" it is.

Uneducated people (we all are) complain to their representatives to do something. The representatives, so fearful of losing their position as opposed to doing the right thing, fall to the whims of their constituents and do what they ask. Rinse and repeat. Stupid policy after stupid policy.

Decisions based on emotions almost always turn out bad.
