@DavidMDrucker totally different! How is it possibly the "same difference"? -
@brianbeutler Because it's not totally different. Semantics. -
@DavidMDrucker not semantics. Huge diff b/w a bipartisan budget deal that negotiators agree to use to raise the DL and what Rs are doing -
@brianbeutler As usual we disagree. But your POV isn't invalid. There's nothing inherently wrong w/ using DC to get other stuff thru.

@DavidMDrucker also, whether or not the DL has been negotiated before *it's still a bad idea.*@brianbeutler -
@sethdmichaels@brianbeutler For the purposes of analysis, I'll leave up to voters to decide whether something is a good course of action.. -
.
@DavidMDrucker and as analysis, "let's stick this thing we all have to do onto this deal" =/= "give me something for this"@brianbeutler
