2/25/15, "Republicans Cave on Everything," Rush Limbaugh
"Even the National Journal -- let me read this as it actually is written. "With the Homeland Security Department set to shut down on Saturday, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell on Tuesday offered Senate Democrats everything they wanted. And then, as with mice and cookies, they asked for some more."
So the media knows the game. The Democrats lay out what it's gonna take to get a deal, Mitch McConnell caves, and Harry Reid (imitating Reid), "No, no, no, ho, no ho-ho-ho no. We haven't even gotten close yet. This isn't a cave. We still got Boehner over there acting out. You gotta do something about Boehner or else."
The mainstream media love it when Republicans cave and then the Democrats demand even more caving. (laughing) The media, I mean, they're playing with 'em, folks, they're just toying with them. "McConnell told reporters Tuesday that after two months of begging, he would finally agree to give Democrats a clean vote to fund DHS through the end of the fiscal year. The funding, based on an agreement between Democratic and Republican appropriators last year, would come with no strings attached."...
Anyway, who didn't see this coming?...We know where this is going because we know what the Republican donors want. That's what everybody has to remember. They call it the donor class now. We got the elite class, the political class, the donor class, the hayseed class, the talk radio class. The donor class, the big money guys, Chamber of Commerce, Wall Street Journal editorial page, Jeb Bush, they want this. So it's not unexpected. It's nevertheless just as frustrating, but it's not unexpected."...
