Back when Sen. Judd Gregg pulled a Bobby Ray Inman and decided there were too many policy differences to allow him to serve as the president's Cabinet Secretary, I think the idea was everyone was still buddies and that he support the thrust of the president's budget proposals. But just a little while ago Gregg was on MSNBC saying the president was bankrupting the country and that Obama was taking a 'Chicago approach' to governing: "You're talking about running over the minority, putting them in cement, and throwing them in the Chicago River."

I guess this is Gregg's contribution to the new climate of bipartisanship and good feelings.
