RE :”The last “deal” that was made did nothing but kick te can down the road for 2 months so Obama can attack the Republicans again then. It was a stupid deal made by people frightened of not getting elected again by the entitlement class.”

It did one other thing.

It extended most of the Bush tax cuts indefinitely as well as fixed the AMT.

Since 2003 ten years ago the best Rs could get as temporary extensions to those tax rates, meaning there was always a looming expiration date where they would go up. Now that is over.

They delayed the automatic spending cuts two months, not sure why or what House Rs position on them is.

They can do away with the Bush tax cuts tomorrow.

Yes they extended them but anyone knows that is not permanent. Nothing is.

In another month and a half we will face the same crap we faced when this Bulls**t sequestration garbage came along.
Once again Republicans will eat s**t as Obama claims Repubicans are at fault fo closing down the Government.
