Only time will tell who won what. Only time. The fact is I agree with people who like and people who dislike the agreement. If you understand that Dems still hold some power and they wanted to cave on nothing then this deal is amazing. But if you felt that the Repubs would go nuclear and demand for a heck of a whole lot more on first swing this was a let down. If you felt that the Repubs didn’t win the senate back and that we still have a senate full of rinos anyways then this deal with socialist Reid was better than nothing. But if you favored a government shutdown because you’d rather have the Dems do nothing and stalement in congress or you didn’t want repubs negotiation with no one or you wanted 100 Billion in cuts or even 61 billion and not 38.5 Billion then this deal is a let down. It is is all based on your point of view. Being allowed to vote on Planned parenthood and Obamacare is one thing but actually having it defunded is another. So that is the situation.

If your like Michele Bachmann then your contradicting yourself because you wanted the GOP to win and get some concessions which are better than nothing and you didn’t want a shutdown because the military would not get payed and refund checks wouldn’t be sent out. Which she said this week on Greta Van Sustern. But then you didn’t vote for the deal, oppose the longer term one yet to be voted on, and want Obamacare defunded. Which she said on a Cavuto special report today. And you are now ranting about cuts being too low and the big battle will be when tackling Paul Ryan’s 2012 budget. So it is what it is.

Would expect nothing less than some on our side to be upset.

Nonsense. You didn't need "time will tell" after the Battle of Midway, or the Philippine Sea, or Kursk, or Stalingrad.

This is the same. Levin is right, Obama fought a holding action against weenie Republicans and won, clearly won. He won ugly, but the truth is in the numbers. One percent. The GOP "New Majority" with Captain Boehner at the helm got a one-percent deal.

Fah.

Obama and his kitchen Politburo are destroying the Republic and looking forward to building concentration camps, and Boehner's acting as if Sam Rayburn were still Speaker of the House and all were still comity, light-hearted banter, and everyone seeking The Good, and the Rat Party hadn't been taken over by outright Stalinists determined to turn America into the new Gulag State.
