Democrats Don't Get It

Democrats have put forth a bill that strips away the time line for Iraq to meet certain goals otherwise they don't get aid for various things. However, they have said that they will try to put in time lines for other bills during the summer. What they've done is twofold.

First, they are appearing to be compromising on their issue while getting the minimum wage hiked. However, what they are really doing is dividing up their demands across multiple bills. So instead of saying "we want this, this, and this", they are saying "we want this" and it appears that's only a minor thing. So Republicans agree to it. Then, later down the road, they say "we want this other thing too", that will also, separately appear to be a minor thing. Republicans will foolishly say ok to it. Then they will say "we want this one last thing" and it will also appear to be minor and some Republicans will say ok to that too.

Then, when the summer months come along, more progress will happen in Iraq and Democrats will say "see, Iraqi's don't need us here anymore, let's call for a time line". Some people might foolishly believe them and say ok. However, we MUST make sure that NO TIME LINE EVER gets into any bill. If they accomplish these things, they will be able to go to their constituents and say "see, we accomplished all the things we said we would. It took a bit longer then we expected, but we did it". Thus, their approval ratings will go up because idiots can't see the big picture.

Don't believe me? Bookmark this article and check back in around August/September and see how close I am to the truth. Damn, I need to get into the "Political Psychic" game. I seem to be pretty good at it. :)
