Dear Obama: Screw you, over the cliff we go. You signed it, you own it.
His idea of common ground is quicksand. EVERYONE goes under.
The only common ground Obama is interested in is the golf course.
Sure, here’s my common ground.
We all need air.
We all need water.
We all need food.
We all live on Earth.
Obama and the rest of our citizens live in America.
That’s about all I have in common with a closeted gay muslim, who’s hell bent on destroying America and turning the country fascist/communist as fast as he can.
IMHO, there is no way you can find “common ground” with a meathead who couldn’t resist throwing the race card at a memorial service for Senator Inouye. Shove it Barry! Take that jive back to Kenya.
Not sure what’s going on. It seemed to me that pass plan B would give the GOP some cover should an ultimate deal not be reached but, I guess refusing to pass plan B means the GOP still has a clean record of never voting for a tax increase. For many people, this is an inportant principle to maintain. Someone please explain this non-vote so, I can understand the strategy.
Second, the GOP still controls the house and even if they are blamed for everything yet to come the President will also feel the pressure of a mucked up economy.
As an informed person I can clearly and easily see that 90% of the problem in our country is too much spending. With that said, President Obama has convinced the voters that the biggest portion of the problem is on tax increases. Fair or unfair, this is a fact. Get ready for the poop to fall on us.
Why is obama leaving town? He doesn’t celebrate Christmas and Ramadan has come and gone.
....................legislators should pass legislation on points where there was consensus — including extending Bush-era tax cuts for all but the top 2 percent of taxpayers..........
Hey Bozo, where is there consensus to intrease tax on everyone over $250k??
Zer0, never held a job where anyone ever reported to him, never hired anyone, never fired anyone, never met a payroll, never gained a customer account, never designed anything, never manufactured anything, never took a course on economics (I think, as he’s locked up all his past)and:
HAS NEVER NEGOTIATED WITH ANYONE ON ANYTHING!
All this guy knows what to do is to walk around as a Chicago street pimp handing out other people’s money, while voting “present” on anything controversial!
FUBO
Me and obama have no common ground. I despise everything he stands for and he abhors everything I believe in. Ditto the Democrat Party.
There is no common ground.
1.Obama insists on ripping off anyone earning over $250,000
2.Extending unemployment .99weeks now What would be his limit and what happens when he reach’s that?
3.Groundwork for future Deficit reductions.
We need reductions NOW, not in the future which will never come with Democrats in charge.Future reductions is BS, Obama speak for never.
The president said he was still open to a larger deficit deal, but underscored that he would need Republican support to reach a deal.
In other words Republicans would have to kneel and kiss his ass.
Then he leaves for Hawaii, with the country in turmoil. New Yorkers without homes after the storm, fighting in the Middle East, and screwing the Secret Service Agents out of their Christmas.
Just what I was going to say.
We had better lend our support to our Republican Conservatives. They need to know they are not out in the wilderness. We are with them.
He's a liar.
It's a shame the House of Representatives has so little power, what with only being in charge of taxing, spending, and approriations, etc. The Republicans look like a pack of sniveling cowards who only want to bow before an African communist who got re-elected thanks mainly to a growing moocher class.
The Republicans will end up giving the African communist and his Democrat party even more tax dollars to offer up to the bums, deadbeats, and parasites who comprise the party's base in exchange for their votes.
We are witnessing a slow, excrucitaing suicide by the GOP.
The so-called "common ground" must be the total annihilation of the republican party platform and the potential long enduring vision of Boehner kneeling in agreement with the democrat agenda. Here's what democrats want (with comments):
. voluntary sacrifice or denial of oneself (or republican party principles), as for an ideal (democrat) or another person (Obama).
We have nothing in common. Screw you.
1) Negotiating with a pathological liar is not just “SILLY” its stupid..
2) Two pathological liars “dickering” is humorous.. a cartoon..
3) A roomful of pathological liars “discussing” is pathetic.. even tragic..
re: Walking away is the intelligent choice..
Let it go over the fiscal cliff. Sooner or later we are going to have to pay back what we have spent. We are going on 2 years with reduced SS deductions which require that money be made up in the future. The spending cuts, including Defense, can be handled within the departments easily by just reducing the nonsense spending. In fact, a balanced budget should be required and any extra taxes realized should be not spent but applied to the debt.
