“He actually admits this and the idea is treated like it’s a bad thing? Am I reading this right?”
Yup, you’re reading it right. The democrats, the press and the bureaucracy are all one and the same. So anything that undermines their power is a threat.
The Tea Party has completely ruined Chuck Schumer’s plans, especially Ted Cruz, who is matching Schumer as a political strategist. Gun Control and Immigration Reform (so far) have been thwarted by Cruz and the Tea Party conservatives. They have also put enormous pressure on both the house and senate republican leadership, making it far more difficult to get things to pass.
The democrats love using moderate republicans to give their democrats in danger of losing elections cover. But with the pressure from the Tea Party, Reid has had to keep all the democrats together and a cabal of moderates just to get cloture on issue after issue. So democrats always have to be on the record of supporting these bad bills. And they hate being held accountable.
So naturally they hate the Tea Party and want to stop its influence. But the Supreme Court isn’t going along.
