If my Congressman signs off on ANY tax increase - I don't care if it's employment tax incentives for Pimps training new workers, he's on my sh!t list.

Both of my RINO Senators will bend over at the drop of a hat and they're already on that list - they don't get my vote again (Isakson and Chambliss).

Cantor preparing us for the eventual cave to the boy king and his "DEMANDS" upon the Congress. Doesn't Congress, just like all other "subjects" have to bow to the boy king's "DEMANDS" /sarc?

They will. The GOP ain’t what you think it is. The Titanic is too close to the Berg to alter course in time. If your calculator can accept the numbers you can figure it out for yourself. The goal is to keep the Ponzi scheme going as long as possible.

Never thought it was...I’m just hoping the new TP congressmen have some integrity. If we keep ousting the RINO GOPer’s and the moderates, maybe we can make some progress.

In any compromise between good and evil, only evil can profit.

Here's the deal, Cantor. If you do nothing, we get $1.6 trillion in budget cuts. Negotiating will do nothing but reduce the amount of cuts. So essentially, if you work out a deal with the Democrats, we the people get screwed. So do the right thing here. Do nothing.

The road to victory lies through the White House. I am hoping Palin is waiting for the GOP to cave on the borrowing limit and then to begin an offensive as a Tea Party Candidate to take the Executive Branch from the GOP/RAT coalition. Now that would be something I could get excited about.

Claire Wolfe opined that: “ America is at that awkward stage. It's too late to work within the system, but too early to shoot the bastards.”

That was 15 years ago. Maybe it IS time to let lead poisoning retire the politicians responsible for the mess they've made. Think of it as permanent term limits for wannabe tyrants.

I frankly don't understand the opposition by some Republicans to special interest tax deductions.

Ever since I was active in politics, the conservative position on taxes was to have a low, flat rate with as few deductions and loopholes as posible.

What the heck is going on?

Unless Palin decides to mount a campaign as a Tea Party Candidate and skips the GOP Dog and Pony Primary games I am sadly afraid you are right. Palin is the only one who could do it. Juan McClame created a monster.

It’s not just the place, it’s the ‘who’. We had several years of the ideal government trifecta - House, Senate and White House. They plain ass effed it up. Loser chickenshit RINOs. We won’t win unless we get all three for a number of years so we can pack the judiciary, too.

I’m not for pimps getting tax breaks BTW...it was a symbol of my belief that government (federal government) only has the right to tax in very very limited circumstances. I sent my Congressman to stop anything Obama wants, period.
