“Reid Caves...”

Don’t believe it. Here’s why:

“...Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid is devising a sham that will never pass muster in the House. A Capitol Hill source with knowledge of the plan tells me: “It includes $1.2 trillion in OCO [Overseas Contingency Operations] savings . . . which was assumed anyway, $1.2 trillion (over $1.1 trillion less than [Majority Leader Eric] Cantor identified in the Biden talks) and $300 billion in interest savings.” A Senate aide says dryly that Reid “has about a trillion in ‘savings’ from ending the war in Iraq that’s already going to end.” And a disgusted House adviser bluntly tells me that Reid’s plan “isn’t real.”

Per Jennifer Rubin, at WAPO

This doesn’t sound to me like that crafty old fraud Reid is caving, now does it?

Ok, Harry. This time you act like you're giving in and I'll give you everything you want under the table. Next time I'll act like I'm giving in and you can throw me a bone.

Ok, John. It's a deal.
