Issues: Dealing with Syria’s Assad, Republican Budget, Netanyahu’s Fourth Term

Caught the budget part on—Clift said Republicans in house and Senate are going to be worst gridlock ever [How about a President who doesn’t understand basic Economics 101, Eleanor? Remember statements like ‘profits, now is not the time for that’, Eleanor?] also Clift says there’s more to take from the rich, well why not 100% then Eleanor? The trade off in high taxes on the rich has been jobs, jobs, jobs, just what the Democrats promised with their stimulus, yet never delivered.

Rogan was doing faily well countering Democrat talking points;

ROGAN: And credit to them, they actually care about the future generation of the country.

CLIFT: It’s full of gimmick and hypocrisy.

ROGAN: But the president’s budget is a proud gimmick. The whole State of the Union was a gimmick.

...CLIFT: Takes the case, the president thinks money grows on tree. Why don’t you try to back that one up?

ROGAN: Well, by his State of the Union, that he says he wants all this infrastructure spending and he doesn’t want —

CLIFT: He wants to invest in the country —

ROGAN: We don’t have any money.

CLIFT: And people and education and —

...ROGAN: And austerity has worked in the U.K., which is the big debate.

CLIFT: And austerity has not worked in Europe.

ROGAN: Why is the U.K. growing at the greatest rate in Europe?

CLIFT: Austerity has been a disaster in Europe.

No Eleanor, the disaster was the spending that lead to that hard pill to swallow, Austerity. Boehner should have stopped splurging with the Democrats 4 years ago.

Eleanor Cliff’s an embarrassment even to the left. She couldn’t make it on FOX nor other political programs because she’s incoherent and illogical. She’s simply a sycophant for the left.

Another thing is Cliff doesn’t listen. She tries to make a point and even shot down she just repeats it over and over, hoping, I guess, that someone will believe her rambling.

I hope congress stays gridlocked on a budget until the cost of adding thousands, probably millions tho we are not privy to the actual numbers, of aliens which this administration is in the process of unloading on America, is fully explained to the American taxpayers footing the bill. Every time a new tax is proposed or floated to be attached to what is generally a perceived necessity for whatever entity involved, the cost of importing huge numbers of additional dependents on US citizens has to be addressed. The amount of taxes already paid by US citizens cannot cover the additional trillions required to support, cradle to grave, the increase in population now being carried out by the Obama socialist democrat administration.
