"We're not in a negotiation to break up the package. It's not an à la carte menu. It's a strategy to get this country moving,” Axelrod said Tuesday on ABC's "Good Morning America." [Emph. added]

When, exactly, has the Congress ever passed a pork-barrel spending "jobs" bill without negotiating elements of it?
