So, if I’m keeping score correctly, the number of things on the Dems wish list from January that have gotten done is.... zero.

Am I right?

The Democrats have managed to drive their approval rating down to 14%. Is it the lowest in history yet?

There *is* the Hillary-Care-By-Increments that is the renewal of CHIP - The “Child” Health insurance that will cover adults to age 25, families of four that make as much as $80,000 a year, and will take money *away* from Medicare - And it will increase the odds that States will use tax funds for abortion, and cut funds at the end of life. And raises cigar tax from 5 cents to $10 per in one fell swoop!

The President is promising to veto — I hope he does!

“”The federal government is spending $5 billion a year on the program. At that rate, it would spend $25 billion in the next five years.

“”The Senate bill would provide an additional $35 billion over five years, for a total of $60 billion. The House bill would provide $50 billion, for a $75 billion total.””

Uh, they raised the minimum wage, putting a bunch of people out of work and causing a real hassle for employers.

Didn’t the minimum wage scam pass?
