Demanding the Impossible

Eugene Robinson, Washington Post
Far-right Republicans are winning the budget wars because they understand something that nobody else in Washington seems to grasp: The old truism about politics being the art of the possible is no longer true.There's no question who won last week's showdown. The outcome -- nearly $40 billion in painful cuts -- goes well beyond the GOP's initial demands. That Democrats were able to save a few pet programs is something, but not much. You really don't need a weatherman to know which way the wind is blowing.
