Reid: Didn't Make a Deal? SUCKER

You have got to be kidding me.

“There are 100 senators here and I don’t know that there’s a senator that doesn’t have something in this bill that isn’t important to them,” Reid said. “If they don’t have something in it important to them then it doesn’t speak well of them.”

He likened the legislation to the defense bill, which is thick with earmarks and other provisions benefitting individual members and even private corporations.

“That’s what legislations all about,” Reid said of the compromises

Didn't somehow find a way to funnel some of that sweet, sweet taxpayer cash to your state? Tough luck, chumps! Guess you'll have to grovel earlier next time!

It's unreal how cavalier they are talking about using our money to bribe one another. (h/t: @seanhackbarth)
