He may soon be doing that to all of us. After Kerry gets confirmed as SoS. Then Frank may be appointed to replace him as Senator from Massachusetts.

"We take in close to 200 billion a month. Why can’t we get by on that?" Because

It's never enough. "Bread and circuses" keeps the people at bay for a while, but eventually the producers stop producing and it all collapses.

Wallace to Republican:

I know your party doesn’t believe in raising taxes, and I’m not saying you are right or wrong.

Wallace...you moron.

“spending cuts” - sequestration of $500 Billion for “military”. Not good IMHO

Also $500 Billion in medical care. Quit paying the Doctors. See how long that “works”.

I wonder if any of the Drivebys will take up the topic of Benghazi this fine morning.

Last night on Judge Janine Pirro's great show she revealed the story behind the story/axelrod fairy tale about the State Depts. release of what really happened in Benghazi. The brothers Grimm would be proud.

Turns out Benghazi was about hiding any bad press for Hillary in her quest for dyke-queen in 2016.

You may be left wondering why it was all the Rogue ambassadors fault for going off the reservation. Who knew he was Palinesque?

Turns out Stevens disobeyed State Dept.commands and went out of bounds by delivering arms all over the mid-East all on his own. Even worse he requested additional security which was ignored by the powers that be. Even though all the other infidel embassies had closed. Violence was everywhere for months before 911 and at least ten branches of al-queda were training near Benghazi.

Seems zeros plan to get his terror buddies to capture Stevens and then he would swoop in and rescue him looking bold just before the elections went astray.

Could be why help never came and Woods and Doherty died a horrible death. All the time expecting planes to swoop in from their many calls. Not to mention Stevens being dragged through the street and being tortured/sodomized beyond belief since his sexual preference did not gel with that of the terrorists. Just another day in the life of infidel torture.

Yes, it will be interesting to see how much Sunday press this story gets.

and NRA.....

Be careful what you wish for....

Obama could adopt the "an armed citizen at every school" to implement his "civilian force funded to the same levels as the US Army"....and overnight you have a "brother" swinging a night stick and armed with an assault rifle at every school.

Everyone over 65 is now at risk. Will we get the treatment for what ails us or will we be told to take a pill.

Merry Christmas to you and to all. Thanks for doing this thread every week. Since Election Day I have stopped (almost)all politics. No Rush, Sean, Mark, FoxNews, etc. Just this thread and WSJ editorial pages. Actually, much happier, but not quite at the “ignorance is bliss” point...YET. But will always look forward to the info, opinions, and friendly chit-chat here every Sunday!

Bohner hired a new negotiator....

This guy is incorruptible and comes with a pre-existing arm twist.

You know, I thought about that and you are absolutely correct.

During the Great Depression people often had no recourse to unemployment except charity, soup kitchens and moving to California (like in the Grapes of Wrath). Still, the media of the day told them Roosevelt was fixing things, making them better and really cared for them! It still took a World War to set things right and America lucked out by being the only unscathed power after it was over.

Fast forward to today and instead of charity we have big government doing it all. It’s not necessary to stand in line, beg or move. You get a credit card (EBT), free cell phone, housing paid for, unemployment check for two years, and welfare or easy social security disability after that. And, of course, the driveby media has never been so partisan and promoting of one political party in general and one president in particular.

Is it any wonder who people will vote for?

(Hint: Not the guy who says no. Let’s get back to hard work and fix things. Especially when his message gets spit on and distorted by the driveby’s)

But as you say, the bill is going to come due. Like the grasshopper fiddling while the ants work, winter will come.

We have actually ensured our own demise in this past election. JMHO.

Wow -- good job Wayne LaPierre on MTP

It took the whole show but when he went down the list of elites-only who are able to get weapons permits in New York the jack ass who was braying at him had nothing to say.

I’m a faithful reader of this column every Sunday morning. I don’t comment much as I have no TV but reading this gives me a general idea of the tone.

Alas, thanks for faithfully posting this every Sunday.

To all FReepers everywhere: Merry Christmas and let’s pray we have a Happy New Year.
