The “Republicans” don’t really even have a simple Majority; Collins, Snowe, and Pansy Graham are on the other side on key issues. Then there’s other turn-coats who sell-out, such as McClame. Republicans will be hard-pressed to get 60 votes until 2012, AND, the damage has already been done at the USSC with Kagan and Sotomayer.....
Ways and means MUST originate in the House so FU Reid and Turban Durbin.
Where can I get one of those for my car?
The majority of the American population just said:
THANK YOU REPUBLICANS FOR BLOCKING THE DEMOCRAT AGENDA
I certainly hope the republicans are not too stupid to see that, and continue to block it.
If Issa can’t see that then make him pencil fetcher.
I'm sure you've figured out first the FUBO, then the Charles Krauthammer, then Karl Rove :-)
But what do you get when you apply it to Harry Reid?
FUHR.
Poor Harry. He had dreams of dictatorship, but all he'll ever amount to is a FUHR.
Cheers!
Amen. Here’s the immediate prob for the RATS: if they don’t move immediately - within days - the IRS is already changing the tax tables for 2011 and people will see ALL the tax increases in January - too late to stop them.
Then the GOP will look great as the tax cutters, people who ‘get it’
Fine with me but people are going to be angry in January
The constitutents who voted the new guys in want and expect no compromise on the principles for which the stand, and on the issues that motivated their vote. That means government that operates within its Constitutional limits, spends no more than it takes in, and only taxes at a level necessary to fund its legitimate functions. On those issues no compromise is acceptable. None at all.
>>Specifically, Schumer said the 112th Congress will “focus on the middle class like a laser,”
Then the first order of business is to pass a law defining exactly what “middle class” means. When the gubmint is promising stuff for the middle class, they mean anyone making less than $250k/yr—even millionaire retirees. When they are actually “helping” the middle class, they seem to only include people that are just barely above the poverty line.
I’m really tired of this “we help the middle class” crap from both parties that never seem to do much for the folks that work hard and actually have a little bit to show for it after the bills are paid. That includes the small business owner and the person that works for a paycheck.
“Reid’s actions are similar to the Japanese emperor issuing warnings to the United States on August 10, 1945.”
Well said!
“On the other side, I fear that Scott Brown is going to tilt far to the left. After the drubbing the Republicans got here in MA., he may figure the only way to keep his seat is to play nice with the Dems.”
Fine, then let him get replaced with an actual democrat. I think we’ve shown that we’re sick of RINOs.
An outright lie.
The 10-year "loss of revenue" (it's not a "cost") for renewing all of the "Bush tax cuts" is $3.7 trillion. We could round that up to $4 trillion.
However, not extending those tax cuts for "the rich" (which is apparently singles making more than $200K per year, and families making more than $250K/year) would only reduce the "loss of revenue" to $3 trillion.
That means that the "the rich" only account for about $700 billion of that loss in revenue. Percentage-wise, it's about 19% of the total -- while the same "rich" pay about 28% of individual income taxes. So, they really aren't getting their "share" anyway.
Elections. Have. Consequences.
Learn it. Love it. Live it.
I was thinking today.....I may have to change my handle.
Harry Reid, Dick Durbin, and Charles Schumer, aII traitors, set the tone right out of the gate. GOOD......
Also, it's time for Bohner to look Obama in the eye and say ... I appreciate your point of view, we've seen plenty of it. But that's not what the American people want, and that's not the way we are going to do it. AND he should raise his voice. It is going to take some YELLING to get through Obama's ideology which he thinks makes him walk on the water. Time to give him some verbal SHOVEDS ... I wonder if John can do that?
Well said and exactly right. The Senate and House Repubs had better not fold on any of the issues that enabled this message to be sent to Zer0 and the RATS.
Literally and figuratively.
Well, the House is certainly going to be a bigger issue than RINOs in the senate.
Notice, however, that it's *her* finger which is bitten off.
Cheers!
