I am sick of this false equvialency BS

Harry Reid, Senate Majority Leader, said this today about the debt deal:
"... I always find, even going back to the days that I practiced law, if people walk out of the room and parties are all disatisfied, that's a pretty good settlement.
And that's what we had here. No one was happy with it. But it was the right thing for the American people.
I think that's perfectly fair.  I mean, the Democrats are unhappy because they didn't get to raise revenue by increasing taxes on the richest Americans in order to keep important social programs that people need in these troubled times.

And the Republicans are unhappy because they didn't get to burn the entire country down.

See?  Everyone's unhappy.  It's all precisely equal.
