Dr. No sucks up to Obama
There are no criteria developed by humanity that would allow you to consider Sen. Tom Coburn a reasonable man. His Senate nickname of Dr. No comes from his ability to make the dog in the manger seem cooperative. How then do we explain this seemingly reasonable position from Dr. No?
Republican Sen. Tom Coburn says that a long-term deficit reduction plan must include some revenue increases, because that's what Americans want.Has he seen the light or is the DoJ doing more than we think them capable of? Time will tell and hopefully bring some indictments.
"It's time for the Senate to earn its reputation as the world’s greatest deliberative body and help lead that effort," Coburn wrote in a Washington Post op-ed Thursday.
"The public rightly prefers spending cuts over revenue increases, but numerous polls indicate the vast majority of Americans would support the only type of plan that would ever make it out of Congress and be signed into law: one that favors spending cuts over revenue increases but includes both," he explained.
