GOP leaving spending bills to Democrats
I guess nothing should surprise me anymore, especially Republican incompetence and mismanagement. The general consensus is that the GOP is hoping that they can derail the Democratic efforts to actually start making some forward progress for the country by leaving them a complete budgetary mess. My confusion is that the budgets were already suffering massively from Republican incompetence and irresponsible spending, so it's really not any bigger of a mess than the GOP had already created. This is good because it's gets the children out of the room so that the adults can take over and start making decisions with an eye towards the future.
Of course, it doesn't matter if the Democrats pasted the most most perfect budget in the history of the world, the GOP will find one line item and that's what they and their puppets in the right wing media will be whining about for the next two years. Republicans are always so predictable, there is no interest or ability to really govern, they only strive to backseat drive while people infinitely better than them make the hard decisions.
If I have any advice for Democrats at all it's this: Do what has to be done! The American people are starving for real leadership after a void for the last decade in the House. Make the hard choices and stand by them, the Republicans lack the spine to do anything that's not pushed by James Dobbson and his crew.
