Nope. I think there are two options:
A) Take the long approach, and say that we're not going to keep the markets unsettled on our every move for the next 6 months or more- the Dems need to act on the bills that have already passed in the House before August 2nd, and not hypothetical outlines. The economy is screaming for some certainty.
And,
B) Worse comes to worse: Pass a short-term extension, but *not* on the terms required by Obama for extending the "Gang of Six" talks. Call Obama's bluff... yet again.
Tell me what it means "not on the terms required by obama for extending the ... talks".
If we have an extension of say 90 days... why would omarxist not be working on a grand deal during said 90 days? What terms are there that would prevent it?
