Vanity: Fiscal Cliff
6 November 2012 | impimp

Posted on 11/06/2012 8:43:34 PM PST by impimp

We lost the Presidency.

But I have a plan to help the USA. We must embrace the fiscal cliff. Boehner must not waver. We must be willing to shut down the government for an indefinite period of time. That means no pension money for our Veterans who risked their lives for us. That means no money for anything.

But it also means the deficit is gone as the government would be unable to add to the debt limit. It also means long-term we would be better off as people would realize they need to be self-sufficient and not sponge off of teh government.

WHO IS IN?!?

Never happen. The GOP House will be completely irrelavant in a post-Constitutional Obama/Reid run Federal Governmnet. The spending will continue and Boner will never ever stand up to the two of these clowns. IT'S OVER FOR THE GOP AND FOR AMERICA.

America just voted to go over the fiscal cliff. More government benes paid for by a tax hike on “the rich” that won’t work. More deficits. No spending cuts. Party til China turns the lights out.

I am distressed that there are so many stupid people in the US.

That said, even though I voted for Romney and all conservatives on our ticket, I have said for some time that whoever wins this election is doomed.

Our financial situation and that of the the civilized world, is so bad that which ever party wins will be doomed for years and maybe forever.

Because there is no easy way out.

Just as Hoover and the repubs of the 1920’s were reviled for the next 30 years, the winner of this election, no matter which party, will be reviled for many many years.

Anyone will win the 2016 election.

That said, I have had it. I am 84 and retired. I do not have to put up with stupid people because I want to close a deal, or because I want a job or for any reason.

I will no longer discuss politics with anyone so stupid that the past four years has not taught them a lesson. If the past four years has not, I don't choose to try.

From Australia...lots of votes to count yet folks..at least 7% swing to Romney.
I figure Fox may have made some early calls.
Agree with assessment of state of the Union...big financial trouble looming.
51% good people blinded by biassed media...a la Germany 1930’s.
Only takes a few.
USA still greatest country on the planet.
God bless USA and Australia.

Not only bring the government to a halt, but bring your personal spending to a halt. Bring the entire economy crashing down.

How long till someone utters the “i” word? (impeachment) Benghazi hasn’t gone away, and a major Mideast war will be the result. Obama’s gun running scam has blown up in his face, and he has so far been successful in keeping his vapid supporters in the dark, as if that would matter.

Obama the weak has survived, and so the Russians and Chinese will start playing their geopolitical military power games with deadly effect. Obama will screw this up so bad, we might just have a military mutiny.

Iran will promise to halt uranium enrichment to reward and bolster Obama the Weak, and then redouble their output. Obama will have no alternative but to try and cover this fact up, lest he be perceived as the dupe and fool we know him to be. A nuclear Iran is a certainty. There is little to look forward to my friends.

Does impeachment only rely on the Republican dominated house? If it has to go through a Democrat senate now or next term, it will fail.
