Hugh Hewitt posted a commentary at the Washington Examiner today regarding the Democrats' 'deeming' a $1.12 trillion budget passed on Thursday night.
According to Hugh Hewitt:
"Ruses and gimmicks, games and deceits have run their course. The public is fully aware of the crisis we face because of the Democrats' vast desire to spend money the country doesn't have on their political allies while waiting to spring massive taxes on their enemies--employers--until the lame duck session after the November voting but before the new Congress is seated."
The American voter is not stupid. The conventional wisdom says that the Democrats will use the lame-duck session (assuming they lose Congress) to pass card check, cap and trade, and raise taxes. The voters are still angry at the way the healthcare reform bill was passed, and the majority of Americans want the healthcare reform bill repealed. I don't know if that will be possible, but it would truly be unwise for the Democrat party to dig themselves deeper in the spending hole they have created. The Democrats may be insuring that it will be a long time before they find themselves in the majority again.
