Idiots, the both of them:
Both Colorado Democrat Sens. Mark Udall and Michael Bennet were among the first senators outside the so-called "Gang of Five" to get details - and support - a plan to slash more than $4 trillion from the federal debt through a combination of spending cuts, tax increases and Medicare and Social Security reforms.
Udall and Bennet have been briefed on the details of a still-working plan and officials from their offices said Thursday they are on board to help move the process forward in any way they can. Sirota was pointing out the other day how DC is a self-contained business model that is completely detached from reality and the rest of America. Colorado's Senators are about to prove his point with another bipartisan compromise* emanating from an institution universally declared dysfunctional even within Washington, DC's prallel universe.
UPDATE: And right on cue The Denver Post jumps in to endorse the bipartisan solution that is halfway between Ayn Randian Social Darwinism and Democrats whose policies are just to the right of Dwight D. Eisenhower.
* - Someone please ban those words from our policy discussions for the next generation. |
