Si Senor. Can't wait for the Sunday guests on Fox to tell me how this turd smells like a rose. |

The problems we face today are there because the people who work for a living
are outnumbered by those who vote for a living.

They have no gonads. They shoulda started at Rand Paul's $500 Billion and come down from there. They were ALWAYS gonna have to negotiate, because they don't control the Senate or the White House. But negotiation isn't simpering coquettishly with your pants around your ankles while handing your burly master a tube of lube and a cat o' nine-tails.

I understand during the voice vote, Paul made sure he was heard voting "NO".

I could make that my signature at Ticker Forum, and it would fit right in. |

They need to cut $500 billion this year, $500 billion next year, and $500 billion the year after that just to bring the budget into balance. That's without even reducing the size of government.
Sorry, but I can't see this squabbling over a few tens of billions as anything other than a failure.

I agree. This is no more than political posturing. Both parties will claim victory while the American taxpayer loses. We all lost. |

I just read that. I think it sugar coats it a little, but people, we only have the House. THEY have the Presidency and the Senate. We would all have liked MUCH better, but I am afraid that this was the best they could do, for now. We need to bust our behinds to get more conservatives elected, people! |

Quite right , and no , they haven't forgotten 2010 . They also haven't forgotten 1996 when they got the sh*t kicked out of them after the last government shut down that Republicans were blamed for . The $38 Billion wasn't important to the Democrats . That's chicken feed . What they tried to do was lay the same trap for the Republicans that worked in '95 . This time Boehner wasn't biting . We stood to lose everything we gained last year . This little set-to was a tactical draw and nobody came out of it looking good . The big fight is still to come when the battle lines are drawn over the 2012 budget and the Dems try this all over again . Our problem is trying to properly communicate to the the American puiblic what this is all about . We find ourselves at a distinct disadvantage when the only news outlet that gives us an even break and doesn't act as a mouth piece for Stymie and his minions is Fox News . |
