Well, that’s embarrassing…
In the typical Democratic rubber stamp fashion – the DCCC released a web video yesterday targeting Republicans across the board in an attempt to continue their narrative of blame surrounding the Sequester. Rather than offer solutions to the looming sequester, Democrats would rather take aim at those who are on record as working against it. From the Des Moines Register:
“The new video doesn’t mention that Latham voted against the original bill that contained the sequester plan, as did the rest of the Democrats and Republicans in Iowa’s U.S. House delegation.”
But that’s not all…
“Latham argues that he voted twice to replace the sequestration cuts with targeted spending reductions of an equal amount.”
Sorry DCCC, when the facts aren’t on your side you can’t just make them up.
“In a renewed push to point fingers, Democrats have reached a new low with this sloppy video casting blame on House Republicans who have passed two alternatives to the Sequester which both died in the Democrat-controlled Senate. Although, in refusing to offer their own commonsense solutions and when the facts aren’t on their side – it seems Democrats are left with few alternatives.” – NRCC Spokeswoman, Alleigh Marré
