It’s REALLY hard to tell ... BUT ... I have pretty much predicted the outcome WOULD be exactly this:
- a small deal that is spending cuts only
Why?
BECAUSE THE HOUSE GOP IS HOLDING FIRM AND WONT PASS ANYTHING ELSE!
1) Gang of 6 ‘deal’ is NOT ready for a vote.
2) McConnell plan is DOA in the House.
3) Tax hikes are DOA in the House.
4) Cut, Cap and Balance has majority House support and will get almost 50 votes in the Senate.
5) Obama has threatened to veto Cut, Cap and Balance.
The ONLY option left is a small debt ceiling raise combined with some significant spending cuts. So they do a 6 month extention, promise to discuss a ‘grand bargain’ and pass some spending cuts.
Either Obama gets NO deal
I agree.
Simple really. Every dollar they can conficate from you is one more dollar under their control, one less under your control.
That's all there is to it.
if Lord Obama doesnt get the Extortion Cieling razed he will make us suffer more than Obamacare ever will

I believe that you KNOW that RC! Can you or anyone else reading this give me one good reason to even suspect that you might be wrong? Is the intention any less clear than the view of the sun rising out of the ocean at Myrtle Beach on a cloudless morning?
