Have it on solid authority that Obama threw a major [bleep]-fit late this afternoon, eastern time, on whatever this is he agreed to as his back was against the wall because the speaker would not back down and apparently Reid and the Veep told the Prez it was over and to get over it. Developing. I should be able to confirm with sources in a few hours or by tomorrow's show.

I’ll believe that when I see the final deal.

>>> The deal may be half a loaf or less to us, but to the Bamster, it means HE DIDN’T GET WHAT HE WANTED!

That’s it. Divided government means compromise can’t be avoided. The grownups realize that. The rest ( on both sides ) hate this. Obama included

The report seems credible.

Funny how the last major announcement he did on a weekend evening was the Obama “killing,” and the story then was he was mad too- that he was pushed into it too. He is a LOUSY leader.

Indeed he does. Glad someone was on to discuss the proposed bill.

I didn’t even turn on Tv—Fox—over past couple weeks they seem to be way too supporting of the Washington insiders.

Well, we’ll wait for the confirmation of this, but for now, this isn’t hard for me to believe at all. In fact, it would be harder to believe he DIDN’T trantrum. Tantrums are totally within his character.

Just imagine if Boehner and McConnell had said “CCB or nothing, you have our #” and walked out. I don’t think the GOP ever realized how strong their hand actually was.

Anything that makes Obummer and the LEFT MAD usually makes me very happy. Esp now that his radical wing is even more pi$$ed at him then all the more :-) :-)

Thank you. When have Pelosi or Reid ever crossed Obama? And if they did, what are the chances the public would hear about it?

Obamski must have missed his tee time, and Mooshelle was told no more vacations this year..

Well, for sure. Let’s see what the analysis is once the details are really known. It was so important to the O’s re-election that he get the GOP to break their tax hike pledge. They needed a fracture in the GOP base. They don’t believe they got it. I don’t either. There is, effectively, no way the commission can raise taxes. First it is implausible that they could get one so high that CBO would score it for more revenue, so what’s the point. Second, the GOP would vote down any tax increase anyway in the House and just let spending get cut on any amount of revenue remaining that the commission could not agree on. If it is too large for defense to reasonably bear (which I doubt it will be) then the next President and Congress, which will be decidedly more conservative that what we got now will adjust whatever has been cut that is too much. This is a rotten deal for the Dems. Their base, which was already depressed, is now in riot mode.

They never have. They have been meeting with him regularly thru this whole thing. They are his minions.

I should have said Reid and Biden. But can you see either of these guys telling Obama to “get over it”.

>The commies are REALLY going to hate us Tea Party types now. <

That’s alright. My hatred for liberals has been steadily growing for the past few years at the point that Civil War gives me a tingle up my leg.

I see your point. 0 is claiming victory for “deficit reduction.” Phooey! We need debt reduction! Deficit reduction means nothing.
