Budget Deal Is Better Than Nothing for Weakened Obama "This isn’t the budget deal President Barack Obama has been seeking for the past three years. It’s certainly not the deal he might have been able to conjure a year ago, when he had Republicans desperate to extend the expiring Bush tax cuts. But for a weakened president under water in the polls and facing the prospect of endless stalemate in Congress, it appears to be better than nothing.".........

This deal appears to be better than nothing?

All right Cap’n Crunch. Where on the deck shall we sit as the band plays on?

Is it your hope we are dashed upon the shoals in shallow water and still have some chance for survival?

You idiot. Your friggin compass is wrong and we see the the icebergin front of us that will destroy our vessel in the deep, dark and icy cold waters.

Your best plan consigns death for too many people who cannot survive your self deluded plan.

Why not slip a Black Adder under everyone’s bed sheets?
