Democratic Dementia

As everyone, I am shocked that the Democrats would submit the Senate omnibus budget bill for a vote given the political climate. It’s as if they saw the midterm elections as a normal partisan pendulum swing rather than a mandate against pet projects, deficit increases and Obamacare. 

Apparently the bill has over 2,000 pages filled with various handouts for unnecessary projects in all fifty states. It's a bill that was written long before the November elections that both parties should've scrapped in light of the obvious convictions of the voters. A continuing resolution would suite us all just fine, but, nope. Democrats are going for it. At this point, I have to believe they just don't care what the voters want, even if voting in kind could gain them reelection. It's complete insanity, especially during a lame duck session, to propose such obvious waste which will do the one thing the majority of Americans oppose -- add to the national deficit.

Watching the opposing party routinely commit suicidal acts would be funny, if it didn't have such dire consequences for the rest of us. Let's hope the moderate Democrats in the house stand up against this, as I predict they will. Also, let's hope the Rinos that run with this bill are held accountable in the coming election cycles.
