Pelosi ..... won’t be watching. Not starting my day listening to someone who can gag a maggot with lies that aren’t a 180 from the truth .... they are lies that are off the planet.

I hope both O’Malley and Walker are in studio and O’Malice smirks “Scott Walker hasn’t been Indicted...yet” one more time, then spends the rest of the hour picking his teeth up off the floor.

Nancy Pelosi and Teddy Kennedy's widow on the same day? I suppose it might be interesting to get the perspective of 2 women who have gained from ill-gotten fortunes, but that should be on some reality show on Oprah's channel or E!, not a major network.

And speaking of ill-gotten fortunes, I do wish that every time Al Sharpton gets quoted somewhere, an enterprising reporter gets a reaction from Tawana Braxley as well. It's a shame that he became a celebrity while she became a footnote, when she did the heavy lifting and carving to get into the headlines in the first place.

Jack Lew says now they are going to continue to implement the AFC, the Rs are going to have to explain why people are going to lose their benefits.

The “uninsured” is the 1%....(hmmmmmmmmmmm)

Wallace plays clip of Barry claiming those under @250,000 will not see their taxes go up.

Wallace badgering Lew over tax/mandate Constitutionality issue.

Lew says what everyone knew would happen and simply says the Roberts was wrong and the penalty is not a tax. Roberts twisted himself into a pretzel to take our freedom away and give it to his precious DC.

So let's add this all up:

The Bush Tax Cuts will expire 12/31/2012. The average taxpayer making around $60,000 through a paycheck will pay $2-3,000 more each year in federal income tax. The average government subsidy/welfare recipient will pay no tax on the welfare, or the rent subsidy, or the free condoms, etc.

The "Payroll Tax Cut" will expire 12/31/2012. The average taxpayer making around $60,000 through a paycheck will have an additional 2% or $1,200 per year deducted from his paychecks. The average government subsidy/welfare recipient will pay no tax on the welfare, or the rent subsidy, or the free condoms, etc.

And all of that is before the ObamaTax to finance ObamaCare. No matter how the election turns out in November, there is going to be a lot of thunder and lighting produced in Washington just to get back to the horrible economic conditions we have today.

Watching ABC.
Has Roberts created a new tension between the Feds and States?

The Feds collect the new Taxes and have the cash.

The States can refuse the expansion of Federal programs, in this case Medicaid, and the States are solely responsible for delivering Medical care.

The Feds cannot push on that rope and force States to bankrupt themselves via Medicaid.
Can progressives fight 50 wars to force Rommnycare onto all 50 States?

Pelosi and Jindal on the same show, but of course they have him debating Dean. I’ve never seen Pelosi debate anyone on these shows. Maybe because someone like Jindal would cause her to melt down on national TV?

Nobody has commented on Face The Nation so here goes. We only get the first 1/2 hour here, so missed Scott Walker on the back half.

The first half hour was more than pathtic. Nora O’Donnell filled in for the old fart and she had Boehner (pre-recorded). She questioned him like a prosecutor would go after a hostile witness. Every question she asked had a sarcastic and condescending tone. Frankly Boehner did a pretty poor job of rsesponding when asked about what parts the Republicans would replace if they successfully repealed Obamacare. He wasn’t very specific. If they don’t present this repeal and replace argument better, undecided voters are not going to support the idea very well.

After Boehner, the prosecutor had Upchuck Schumer and Coburn on. Her questions were softballs for Chucky, and pretty antagonistic towards Coburn. Coburn, a physician, did a pretty good job of pointing out the potholes down the road if this healthcare monstrosity gets completely implemented.

This Nora O’Donnell witch should work at MSNBC. She’s much worse the DNC Dave, or Stephy.

Thanks, AB.

Late arriving because something always seems to happen on Sunday. this time it was my internet connection and then church time.

Did watch Fox News Sunday... what a waste of time. The White House guy just flat out lied about everything and Mitch McConnel, what can I say. He may do a good job running the House but he could make the Second Coming sound dull.

Thanks for thread AB. Could not participate due to power outages here. Time to seek alternate energy sources.
