Do Democrats stand up--really stand up--for ANYTHING?

Further proof of how Democrats are all-too-happy to "cooperate" and "bend" and "give" and "collaborate" when, all the while, the Republicans and now, additionally, the Tea Party don't so much as flinch:

Dems hint at flexibility in budget talks

Of course they do!

From the article:

WASHINGTON – Democrats indicated Tuesday they may be willing to accept Republican-backed curbs on the Environmental Protection Agency and other federal regulators as part of an overall deal on spending cuts, a rare hint of compromise in private negotiations marked by public rancor.

The good news, if there is any, is that this could, hopefully, supposedly, get the Republicans to come off their figure of $61 billion they wanted cut from the budget, in order to get a spending bill and not shut down the government.

I'll believe it when I see it's inked.

In the meantime, we have this president who doesn't know how to negotiate tough deals from his adversaries.

(banging head against wall).
