Are you feeling good about our “great WIN” on the budget battle last Friday?
One can barely grasp the enormous stupidity of the budget deal. It is a signal that there is no chance of a bold, desperately-needed reconciliation with sanity. There is no chance that even discretionary spending can be limited, much less the drastic measures required to save the nation from bankruptcy and world-wide ridicule.

He negotiated positive press and a fig leaf from the president in return for capitulation.

thanks for linking to that excellent article. The GOP has been given an opportunity. Yes, they got “some” cuts on this latest negotiation, but in baseball terms, I’d probably call it a foul ball -- which counts as a strike. They’ve got 2 more pitches coming -- the debt ceiling and the 2012 budget. If they don’t get a real “hit” -- we’re in big trouble. We will know the outcome, shortly.
