West Wing offers great insight into the Democrat's mind!

Until last week, I had never seen a full episode of the former show, The West Wing, at least not while paying attention. I’ve chatted with a lot of conservatives about it who all generally say something negative. Either way, I think it’s a neat show. Why am I posting about it you say? What a good question! I just watched an episode (Season 1 – “Mr. Willis of Ohio”) in which the White House’s deputy chief of staff’s assistant is asking about the budget surplus — the exchange is priceless: a Democrat explaining his line of thinking.

DONNA: We have a 32 billion dollar surplus for the first time in three decades
JOSH: Yes.
DONNA: Republicans in Congress want to use this money for tax relief right?
JOSH: Yes.
DONNA: Essentially what they’re saying is, they wanna give back the money.
JOSH: Yes.
DONNA: Why don’t we wanna give back the money?
JOSH: ‘Cause we’re Democrats.
DONNA: But it’s not the government’s money!
JOSH: Sure it is. It’s right there in our bank account.
DONNA: That’s only because we collected more money than we ended up needing.
JOSH: Isn’t it great?
DONNA: I want my money back.
JOSH: Sorry.
