WASHINGTON — Senate Democrats argued Monday that they couldn’t give an inch on whittling away Obamacare in a government funding bill because it would be like encouraging bullies to hit them again and again with other fast-approaching must-pass pieces of legislation.
“With a bully, you cannot let them slap you around because today they slap you five or six times,” Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) told reporters. “Tomorrow it’s seven or eight times. We are not going to be bullied.”
Reid noted that Democrats have agreed to fund the government for six weeks at the spending levels that the tea party-driven Republicans want. “We have done everything we can,” he said.’
