To add to the list of things our rivaling parties can't agree on, today Republican Representative Eric Cantor declined to sign on to what is now an all Democratic letter opposing the United Nations declaration of a Palestinian state, reports Politico's Ben Smith.

Congress just can't agree on anything these days.
