I do too.

I saw McConnell on a Sunday show, and the host put up a quote from Ron Paul about how cuts have to be NOW not later, b/c they never show up. I wondered if the host were trying to set up McConnell by putting up a quote from the “kooky” Ron Paul.

McConnell didn’t budge. He said that the quote was absolutely right. (Which of course it is).

And...Boehner is right here. Rightly or wrongly, the POTUS is going to be seen by the public as the one to lead on this issue. He has to propose a solution that the party that controls the House will support.

And the House has said, no tax increases.

So that’s political reality. (Problem is, Obama knows that if he “caves” the the House GOP he will lose re-election. But I think I am starting to see what Rush and others have been saying....Obama is going to lose no matter what, and this week’s events are merely clarifying that).

“O” already lost.

Leadership is one thing you can’t fake. “O” is not a leader and cannot even make himself APPEAR as a leader.

He’s done.

Spot on, CD

I see the deliberate deception also as Obama and the rest of the criminal underclass trying to sucker the GOP into budging on tax increases so as to hammer them with a broken pledge in 2012

HOLD THE LINE! SPENDING CUTS TODAY!

You guys need to eat crow. Your boy McConnell is already bending over.

It's time to burn Mitch McConnell in effigy...

And Boehner “caving” will only insure that both Obama AND Boehner will lose their relection bids, despite the MSM talking points predicting a Obama win in that circumstance.
