And yes I am talking about the Democrats:
After weeks of tough talk, Democrats appear resigned to back down again on providing money for the Iraq war.
What happened?
“Republicans, Republicans, Republicans,” said Jim Manley, spokesman for Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev. “The real problem here is the president and his Republican backers” who have “staked out an increasingly hard-lined position.”
Indeed, with Democrats holding a razor-thin majority in the Senate and with 60 votes needed to overcome procedural hurdles, Senate Republicans were in a plum negotiating spot this month.
I wonder how much lunch money Harry Reid lost to bullies while growing up? He is actually making me miss Bill Frist – yeah it’s that bad!
