Democrats and journalists fail to say offer/deal was short term extension only

Over and over and over republicans say demos won't negotiate.

Reid negotiated; he compromised. Boehner agreed. result?

Short term CR at Republicans number for funding.

Boehner reneged.

Deal was not take Obama or Dems number forever. Was 6 lousy weeks.

Disgusted that Dems don't explain this and that the media doesn't point this out.
