How Dare Dirty Harry Reid! How Dare All of Them!
Harry Reid Quote:
The Boehner plan, Reid argued, did not qualify as anything more than a "big wet kiss" to the Tea Party - and he pledged that "every Democratic senator will vote against" it.
"It's too bad his caucus is being run by such a small number of people," Reid said, of Boehner. "[House Republicans] are struggling to save a Tea Party bill... The way to resolve this crisis is to ignore the extremists and meet in the middle of the road."

Leaders from both parties continued on Wednesday to push for their own plan while lambasting the other. Neither House Speaker John Boehner's Republican proposal nor Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid's Democratic plan, however, appears to have the necessary votes to pass through Congress.
In a press conference on Wednesday, Reid argued that the Democratic plan was the only "true compromise" on the table, and urged lawmakers to rally around it.
"We're running out of time," he told reporters. "It's time to get serious about finding a compromise."

Meanwhile, it appears Boehner's Plan may be approved, although word is it still will not pass the Senate. Reid said today that it's OK, he can take their plan and make his changes. So, just like summer of 2009, they treated us the same way as we were fighting against socialized Obamacare. We were really mad and we went out and let them know how we felt. We were instrumental in a lot of their provisions being thrown out of the bill.
We need to get engaged and stay engaged.
Remember to Tweet Boehner and tell him and your congressmen how you feel! Call! Do not let up!
How Dare All of Them!
