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.
