This may not be such a bad thing...

According to the Washington Times, democrats have said they will shut down the government if the Republicans in the Senate try to get them to follow the rule of law.

Now, while this crybaby attitude is fairly typical of liberals, I can't help but remember the words of Mark Twain:

"No man's life, liberty, or property are safe while the legislature is in session."

They may be doing the country a favor...
