Cancelling his programs and cutting others just never cross his mind.

He’s a renegger.

Yes, but remember, there are white reneggers and black reneggers.

Of all the stupid things he has done, this could be the most deadly politically.

I hope so!

So, if you decide, after all, NOT to renegotiate, does that precipitate a process called unneg, or the does the person doing that then become an unegger?

My head hurts. Thanks a lot.

So, we have a country teetering (literally) financially. Our spending/budget is what, 87, 88% of our GDP? Our debt ceiling has just been raised (again!), we have "off books" spending not even factored in, Social Security went red for the first time, Medicare, all I can do is shake my head at that one. We have high unemployment in the private sector, unemployment benefits running out, Government hiring left and right, TWO wars to fund and finish (AND WIN!), Government take over of Auto, Banks and numerous other bailouts.

Seriously, how the hell can it NOT all come crashing down?

Where we go, so goes the world. The U.S. cannot survive much longer as a consumer based economy.

His budget proposal eliminates the deduction for the first 2400 or whatever of unemployment. so when that gets instituted, wait’ll the outcry over that.

If I remember any of my smattering of Greek, it means literally “without knowledge.” Which describes Obama to a T.

That would make him a Native American giver.

like this, I never would've made that no new taxes under $250K promise."

Could it be because he’s so secure in the knowledge that the loyalty of the MSM has no limit?

I'm less sure of that than I once was.

MSM pay taxes too.

They are finding Robert Gibbs' antics less funny.

I'm waiting for a Walter Cronkite moment with repect to the president.

Are you white? If you are, then your taxes are going up significantly.

Do I really need to put the /sarc tag

Steady. It was nothing more than a bad pun on my part.
