Well, duh:

Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid finally let the fat-cat out of the bag yesterday, confirming what's been apparent for some time:

Democrats, led by President Obama, aren't interested in more jobs for all Americans. They just want more government jobs.

“It's very clear that private-sector jobs have been doing just fine,” the Nevada Democrat said on the Senate floor in support of a $35 billion bill aimed at shoring up jobs for teachers and first-responders.

Fish, meet barrel. Charles Krauthammer is fond of using a variation of the remark attributed to Michael Kinsley: A gaffe is when a politician speaks the truth (inadvertently, Charles usually adds). Reid's like the drunk uncle who gets shunned for blurting out what the rest of the family really thinks of cousin Sheila.

It would really help if most Americans and especially Nevadans actually knew he said it.
