Democrats wont even stand up and go on the record supporting or denouncing their own Presidents plan. Of course this is the same Senate that has voted against budgets proposed by President Obama 99-0 when actually forced to do so.
Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D- NV) is probably the largest obstructionist in Washington DC these days. What is funny however is when he obstructs President Obama.
As we all know President Obama made a proposal correctly called unserious" for avoiding the looming fiscal cliff". The plan was basically soak the rich" and maybe possibly well cut some loosely defined spending a decade down the line. That proposal would not obviously have solved anything. But it would have made the far left base of the Democratic party people who just adore socialism and believe there is always more of someone elses money to spend very happy.
Following the plan" being divulged the media was agog and trumpeted the fact" that Obama had a plan while Republicans had none. Yep the same old pathetic playbook whereby the liberal media ignores the real facts in favor of made up ones.
Yet this week did you know that Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) tried to get the Senate to vote on Obamas proposal. Yep. Its true. The attempt came in the form of an amendment attached to a Russian trade bill (H.R. 6156).
So was there a vote? Nope. Harry Reid nixed that attempt and called it a political stunt". Yes Heaven forbid that a vote would actually be taken on his own partys Presidents proposal. Logically this means that Harry Reid believes the Presidents proposal was a political stunt" as well. Thanks for admitting the truth it Harry even if it is in a roundabout convoluted manner.
It would be funny if it werent so sad. Democrats wont even stand up and go on the record supporting or denouncing their own Presidents plan. Of course this is the same Senate that has voted against budgets proposed by President Obama 99-0 when actually forced to do so.
All this is nothing new. Harry Reid has been pulling this sort of stunt so many times over the past few years to protect Democrats from actually going on the record that it has basically turned the Senate into a three ring circus. And it seems clear that Democrats are determined to force a jump come January.
Thats ok. Ill agree to that. Only on one condition. I get to push all the whiney liberals off first along with all their precious entitlements doers like myself pay for. That way when my turn comes I will have a nice pile of bodies to cushion my fall. After all why should someone like myself a doer who understands the problem suffer because of liberals too stupid and stubborn to take proper action? It just doesnt seem fair" and arent liberals all about fairness"?
Oh thats right liberals believe that fairness" is them getting what they want and being allowed to loot the treasury until they have gotten it.
