Distraught Dems grieving on your dime

After last week's "shellacking" courtesy of the GOP, liberals have been moping around Capitol Hill, stunned that their agenda had been thoroughly rejected by the American people. Don't feel bad for these distraught Dems, as this week Democratic staffers are being visited by support professionals. These folks went around to the offices of outgoing Democrats to help their staff members with resume writing, job hunting, and grief counseling.
What is infuriating is that these "counselors" are being paid for by the taxpayers. While your friends and family are watching their savings accounts inch towards zero in the Obama economy, the Democrats are using your hard earned money to learn how to accept defeat. 17% of our country is unemployed or underemployed, but where are the grief counselors and support professionals for the backbone of our country, middle class Americans? Instead of helping those truly in need, the Feds want to help Nancy Pelosi cope with the loss of her beloved gavel.
This is just one more example of the federal bureaucracy engaging in the shameful coddling of their own, while the American people are still looking for steady work.
