Dems: Give us your money so we can continue to overspend your money

"A fundraising appeal from the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee warns supporters that 'Tea Party Republicans are threatening to shut down the government on Friday unless we surrender to their outrageous demands,'" The Hill reports.

I had no idea that not spending taxpayer money on "cowboy poetry festivals" and $600,000.00 sculptures was "outrageous," much less "blackmail," as Democrats wail.
