WTH did we vote in Dems for if they are only going to cave to every petty repug request?

House Democrats are stripping funding for the National Mall from the recovery legislation, after a wave of right-wing criticism. The move came after President Obama’s chief of staff Rahm Emanuel “hosted eleven relatively moderate House Republicans…hoping to secure their support.” Family planning funding was also stripped from the bill earlier this week.

House Minority Leader John Boehner (R-OH) and Minority Whip Eric Cantor (R-VA) say they want “100 percent” opposition to the recovery package. In a House GOP meeting yesterday, no Republicans “spoke up in disagreement when urged to oppose the legislation by their leaders.”

This is really starting to piss me off. WTF is wrong with the Dems? Don't they realize that they won?!

The repugs will never be satisfied until they destroy every positive that the Dems are trying to accomplish. F'k 'em! Let's just get some shit done!
