Obama is just wagging the dog because of Fast and Furious, fake BC, ignoring the law, low approval numbers.........
The bottom line is that the GOP is going to have to find a way to call out Obama and Reid as to what spending cuts, if any, they will support. As of this writing, the MSM is shamelessly allowing Reid and Obama to get away with murder by not demanding that they publicly disclose their spending cuts. Hell, BO hasn’t even submitted a second budget (other than a speech) and the Senate Dems haven’t passed a budget in two years.
Life is unfair, yes, but this truly sucks. It’s beyond any pretense of media objectivity.
We also need Boehner and McConnell to turn up the heat rather than run to the corner and hide.
What is this janitor doing in the White House?
I don’t know what it is about Cantor, but I get an itchy feeling between my shoulderblades knowing that guy is in a position to make a deal with the Dear Leader.
I don’t trust him. I may be proven wrong, but the track record of these spineless weasels ain’t too good. McConnell’s backstab was just the first. The next will come from our House champions...
When are these imbeciles going to figure out that we will not stand for $1 in tax increases! We are taxed too much already! Cut spending!
Every time I read this stuff my mind goes back to those that wouldn’t go for McNut. How is America now with your no vote or just staying home. For the hell of it, why don’t the same bunch do it in 2012. Who gives a crap about your freedom or standard of living anyway? Even now most of the GOP don’t.
Why didn’t Cantor come out and say this on camera in front of the White House?
The “Bush tax cuts” issue was settled in December, 2010 until 2013- it’s like a contract that was signed. It’s over. You don’t allow the other party to get away with demanding some new contract with drastic changes just eight months after you signed the last one.
The economy needs some certainty on where taxes will be- the extension until 2013 gave it that (as best it could under the circumstances). And massive new taxes would damage the economy even more now.
The sole focus should be on spending, and the Republicans need to emphasize that they have made massive concessions already from the $6 Trillion in cuts they wanted earlier to the minimal $2 T in cuts now.
