RE :”He has been so certain of his campaign skills that he didn’t open a line of communication with House Speaker John Boehner and Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell until Thursday, a week before the spending ax hits. And when they did finally hear from Obama, the calls were perfunctory, with no request to step up negotiations or invitations to the White House.
.....
That’s because Obama’s all-in on an outside strategy, doing just about everything other than holding serious talks with Republicans. In the last two days alone, he’s courted local TV anchors, called in a select group of White House correspondents to talk off-the-record, chatted up black broadcasters, and announced plans to stump next week at Virginia’s Newport News Shipyard. Throughout, he’s talked in tough terms that signal little interest in compromise — or suggestion of backing down.”

Isn’t Obama’s popular (75% approval) solution to permanently raise taxes on the rich again to pay for another 3 month delay in the spending cuts?
And he campaigns that this is the only ‘serious’ idea proposed?

It seems like the above could be shown to be phony by a competition opposition party.
But (most in) the GOP we got just repeats the same losing argument as they used last year :"If a rich guy pays any-more taxes we all die"

Werent Republicans going to demand a budget?

The Dem/Obamanations are driven-—as all tyrants are-—by their obsessive need to exert absolute control.

They need to get back the House majority-—so they can run rampant over the citizenry.

The Dem/Obamanations eat, sleep and drink “mid-terms.”

Every move Ohaha makes has one end in mind-—t-o-t-a-l c-o-n-t-r-o-l.
