But you see, that's not true. The Democrats did not just take office a month ago. For two solid years, the Democrats didn't need any Republican votes. What did they do? Who refused to present a budget? In 2010, with absolute control, the Democrats stubbornly refused to produce a budget. The Senate is closing in on three years now without one. The Obama budget was D.O.A, voted down in the Senate unanimously. Think about that. Who's been ducking negotiations? Who's been having the secret meetings? Who rejected their own budget commission?

They've got nothing. I suspect this latest ploy is more of the same.

The Democrats have one thing in mind: Keeping the presidency and getting their power back. To do that they have to go a year and a half without anyone finding out what they're about: massive spending and taxes, and all-powerful government. Good luck on that.
