I saw the Senate spin they're attempting...and while I have zero doubts old soft spoken Harry Reid can be a real dick kicker, only the ideologues are going to buy that shit.  Everyone else, with even a quarter of their non-ideological brain functioning, knows EXACTLY who to point a finger at, this go round.

As I said before, trying to find an equivalency for giving business and corps an extra year on the ACA and your average citizen deserving of the same thing, is a crock of ever loving bullshit.  They know why, but that won't stop them from trying to cause further division...it's in their best interest...because they want the ACA dead in the water. It's an abortion they approve of.  This thing will only truly work as long as the numbers are their in sign-up.

"We have to get SOMETHING out of this."  They came to the table, with nothing...nothing. But now it's the President's job to help them save face, which in turn they'll use as an opportunity to shit on him and the ACA...why the fuck would he do that?  Why would any rational human being do that? 

It's like you're finally getting the better of a bully whose been a dick to you since you've met, and as the crowd grows bigger watching this shit go down, the bully says softly from the head lock you have them in, "Please man, please Gawd man, don't do this. This is all I've got...please let me kick your ass...I'm fucking begging you man! And if I can't kick your ass...can you please, for the love of Gawd, make it look like a draw so I can at least walk away with my bully pride?"  Who in their right fucking mind would do that?
