Simply put: The Republicans are Spoiled Brats, and the Democrats have enabled them.

A “spoiled brat” is a child that exhibits behavioral problems from overindulgence by his or her parents.  Some children, when they want something, cry, kick, yell, scream, whine, and nag until they get their way.

Every parent has seen this behavior.

I want my ‘tax cuts for the rich’, and I want it NOW!

Unfortunately, the nature of Democrats has been that of the weak parent who constantly gives in to their child at the first sign of crocodile tears.  The parent thinks that they are compromising, or simply preventing a worse scenario in public, but we all know that spoiling these children only guarantees future continuance of this behavior.

Not only that, but the outside observer of this event, more often looks at the PARENT as the problem! (see November 2010 elections as an example)

UNCOVERS:

The Democrats are far too timid, far too conciliatory, and far too easily played the fool.  At some point, after being burned and used, time and time again, you need to Ferberize the child, take the toy away, and discipline the bad behavior.

Being implacably steadfast, if you know you are doing the right thing for 98% of the country, is the right thing to do.  And if you want to be a party in control of the Government, you cannot allow the temper-tantrum to control the debate.

If you allow it, that becomes the norm, and then instead of actually being productive, you spend all of your time managing the level of noise that the tantrum produces.

They expect you to back down, Democrats… man up!
