I am actually shocked that the Republicans didn’t cave.

Actually they did by agreeing to raising taxes, but the Democrats were under strict orders to not accept any deal. This whole circus was orchestrated when Boehnor went golfing.

They caved when they voted for the supercommittee. They have played right into obama’s hand.

So am I.

Let’s not get too excited, tho. There’s plenty of opportunity for them to cave from now to the election.

It was a "heads I win, tails you lose" bet by the Prevaricator-in-Chief. He hoped the Pubbies would cave and he'd win the jackpot. But if they didn't he'd have a wonderful campaign issue, blaming them for obstructionism in a "do nothing" Congress. After all, the MSM is in his back pocket and will spread that meme far and wide.

I am actually ashamed to be associated with a party that was so incredibly stupid as to accept this deal. Boehner and McConnell have a lot to account for. Watching Republicans trying to outmaneuver Democrat thugs is like observing pussycats caged with vipers.
