Time for the House to TURN OFF THE F’ING CREDIT CARD.

Everybody I know has stopped watching BOR, Hannity etc. We don’t even watch the news. We check out Rush for a while everyday. Thats about it. Going Galt.

Promised my wife that we would stop listening to talk radio, politics on TV, etc., if we lost. Still watch Fox and Friends in the morning (local news is just terrible) but that is it.

Don't really miss it. Kind of feel like they all yanked my chain - especially Rush and Hannity.

I say do nothing and the democrats are the one’s in command and let’s put the blame on them.

So let's see. When the Dem Congress replaced the GOP in Congress in 2007, unemployment was at 4.4%, but the collapse that happened a year later was Bush's fault. The fact that it was the Democrats who promoted the policies that caused the housing mess and blocked the GOP from preventing it is conveniently ignored.

Now, with the Democrats in control of the Senate and White House, if the economy collapses again it will be the GOP's fault for not taxing the rich more, never mind that their tax bracket is over twice the rate of those making the median household income, and 47% pay no taxes.

OK, I got it.

Bloomberg is reporting that Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid said little progress has been made regarding fiscal cliff negotiations and that he was "disappointed."

The more disappointed he is, the better for all of us - especially in the long run.
