Quote from CaptainObvious:
So where are we at after this dog and pony show? The Repubs say we can't trust government. I thank them for their honesty, so go home. The Dems want the sky and the moon with no way to pay for it. Good luck with that! President Obama did show some stones with one line...that's what elections are for. I agree completely. If the Dems have the courage of their convictions they should ram through whatever they want and let the chips fall where they may come November. The spoils go to the victors and they did win. It's their turn in the barrel, no more shouting from the cheap seats. Suit up, make the decisions and take the hits. We'll see if they have what it takes to do something other than pitch a bitch.
