Mark Levin, The Great One has just reported that the GOP Leadership has called a Special Conference and are threatening committee chairmanships and assignments because at the moment, they do not have the votes to pass the second bill of Plan B.
(Excerpt) Read more at marklevin.com ...
Why didn’t he have a vote? Cantor was quoted all day saying they had
the votes to Pass Plan B. did Bonehead get a headache and decide to
cancel the vote.? Bonehead should have broken out the Water Boards.
No need to keep parroting yourself.
Obama and Reid will sweep in with a tax-raising, spending maintaining bill to "save" us from the fiscal cliff, there will be enough lock-stepping House democcrats and RINO cross-overs to pass it.
Don’t all tax rates go up if they don’t pass anything? Did Boner agree to this fiscal cliff in earlier negotiations? It looks to me like we are screwed no matter what.
yes, and that was what Obama wanted. the only way for the Republicans to get out of this mess, was to have walked out the first day and say they were not voting for ANY tax cuts. We were either going to get screwed because of the sequestration because the dems haven’t had a budget for so long, or the dems were going to turn anything down that the republicans offered anyway. so, either way, we lose.
This is Tom DeLay Corruption Part Deux. TRASH THEM ALL!
“Dont worry. You folks won. Our taxes go up now.
Great job , being Obamas tax collector.”
Who is “you folks” and where exactly do you fit into this collective?
Have you read your own about page lately? Maybe you need to revise it.
Fiscal Cliff is a joke. The real cliff comes when this country turns into another Argentina.
“After taxes go up thanks to this defeat Voters scream at Republicans for raising their taxes...”
The Republicans will not be any more vulnerable than the Dems.
Let the Obama supporters pay their fair share. Even the leeches and infinite, habitual ones on unemployment. Nothing gets their attention faster than winding down the welfare state.
Ultimately, when they start seeing reduced paychecks the buck is going to stop with the president. I say let them feel the pain, the longer they are protected from Obama’s policies, the more they “approve” of them.
“...longer they are protected from Obamas policies, the more they approve of them.”
Well said and I agree completely.
Not another one.
When voters taxes go up in a few weeks there will be mobs with ropes and torches after the House Republicans. (because the bill they defeated was really not a tax increase bill but would of stopped them from going up.)
I understand your frustration with the 47% but pissing off another 40% (87% total) by raising their taxes out of spite you will end up with even higher taxes and more gubment control under Dems.
Plan B was done in secret !
So what do you know ?
It’s was more pork for k st !
Bonehead was desperate to save his K st and the military Beltway bandits funds .that power give him leadership power and screw us !
Boner could have stopped finding obamacare two years ago and did not !
Why K Street wants Obamacare !
The man is a lobbyist bagman and nothing more !
He is disgrace and disaster and needs to be removed !
You folks just killed any chance of that with this/
After this fiasco NO ONE, NO ONE will go near his job.
He just proposed a bill that would keep our taxes from going up that was defeated by the absolutely false claim that it was increasing taxes.
Now our taxes go up after this so called *tax increase* bill was defeated???
NO_ONE will take that job after this. When voters taxes go up in a few weeks there will be mobs with ropes and torches after the House Republicans. (because the bill they defeated was really not a tax increase bill but stopped them )
The senate left for the year !
It was a poorly done pr scam .
There was no deal !
all these desls are done in secret for a reason .
It was all about the pork keeping flowing .
Bonehead is a devious K street bag man !
He would sell us down the river already in terms of Obamacare
!
He is K street front man .
He was desperate to keep the huge military beltway bloodsuckers fed and his lobbyist pals happy .
By the way , many former staffers of his.
Bonehead has created a civil war in the house GOP and he
Will be gone hopefully .
Yep. I singlehandledly elected/allowed to be elected (take your pick) Obama, too.
Where were you in 2008 when my ox got gored?
Gripe all you want, but I won't vote for a GOP liberal, and if the GOP goes the way of the Whigs? Color me unconcerned.
Run conservatives, vote conservative, and not GOP, and push for conservatives.
Then, we might, maybe, have 2 parties, instead of the one party with 2 faces we have now.

You are living in la-la-land with that.
Your victory ensures that no-one wants Boners job and that the GOP is despised for raising our taxes.
Your victory here will be a curse on this nation.
Everyone wants to be speaker .
Bonehead was placed there by his K st pals and ex staffers .
The Dems , Obama ,an d the media want him there too .
He is crooked DC insider who hates the GOP as much as they do !
Notice how the media have never tried to destroy him like the Hammer or Newt .
He is the perfect crooked Lobbyist stooge who wants to keep the
Spending going and nothing else !
Our taxes were going up no matter what because boner only
Worried about only K st money flowing and then
Gutted the GOP leadership and set off a civil war.
He is a stupid lobbyist fool who does there bidding .
The media knows he is a moron and not a threat to Obama !
BTTT!
I thought sequestration was a very idiotic way to deal with the debt limit debate last year. I didn’t support it as cover then, and I don’t support it as an excuse to raise taxes on job creators now.
Bring it on.
Conservatives win by pushing back against this Speaker.
Taxes might go up temporarily and idiot democrats may celebrate, but if conservatives hold their ground, the other side will blink first.
The only way to negotiate with people like these Chicago thugs is by making sure they understand that we’re just as willing to draw blood as they are.
The “fiscal cliff” and the idea of restoring the current tax rates isn’t going anywhere. I’d rather no bargain at all than a bargain on their terms: spending reductions off the table.
Your reaction to a much needed push back on Boehner is out of character for you.
No, this will lead to disaster. The final deal will show this plan B to be a brilliant strategy,
When you line up with Obama and Pelosi against a tax cut bill the warning bells SHOULD go off.
