I stand here in abject stupefaction. The so-called "right" or "Tea Party" in this republic is being so thoroughly rolled and defeated that I am struggling to come up with an adequate violent submission metaphor that does not involve prison rape . . . and they honesty think that they're "winning." Really? You call this winning? - Obama gets over $2 Trillion to spend before the 2012 election - There are no real spending cuts - There is a massive tax increase effective January 1, 2013...

You are late to the party. I hope at least you brought some rope.

It`s not jail rape, it`s being slipped GHB in your drink at a night club as you`re being dazzled by the flashing lights, disco balls and the sweet talker in your ear.
YES, IT`S YOUR FAULT YOU GOT DRUGGED AND DATE RAPED!
Stupid rookie GOPers. Err, GOP/RINOS now.
You`ve been bought and paid for now. You`re nothing but ex-virgins now tossed in with the rest of the whores.
How`s that, enough?
Conservatives/Republicans have been compromising our way to total collapse for decades. That’s what happens when you only play offense. The Democrats want way bigger government. Our side says NO. We compromise for a not so gigantic increase. But an increase nonetheless. The next day D.C. moves on to another issue and the same process of compromise takes place.
When good compromises with evil evil wins. And when evil compromises with good evil wins.
The game is coming to an end. Thanks, “conservatives”. Thanks Republicans.
We need the house and the senate and the whitehouse.
The hysteria is hysterical . Rep Paul Ryan was on local radio this afternoon. I will take his guidance and not have my head explode like so many others on FR.
Most Americans no longer have any confidence or trust in government left.
The U.S. Government has become an oligarchy, run by super wealthy insiders, and the well connected.
Those capable of critical thought, understand this charade in D.C. is a choreographed, good cop, bad cop sham.
Government continues to grow, spends more and becomes more controlling.
We are no longer represented.
It’s becoming inordinately clear, the solutions for government won’t be solved by traditional means.
Some of what you speak of is true I agree . Congressman Paul Ryan is among a small handful of those I trust.
How’d having all three work out for us in the early oo’s? As I recall we still grew govt and expanded entitlements and increased regulation.
I don’t understand the caterwauling about the Bush tax cuts expiring in 2013 being a basis for opposing the debt deal. That massive tax increase in 2013 only happens if we lose the 2012 election.
Oops...you know what? I’m wrong. And now I’m also very depressed...
You got that right.
The next Congress can do anything they want to. Its up to us to primary or defeat the current one!
The American people love to delude themselves.
Won’t change a thing.
Increasing out debt by 2 Trillion is a tax, it is called inflation.
WE don't have two trillion dollars to lay out, and we aren't going to be borrowing it from anyone.
The author stated: "We are in the midst of the largest currency debasement ever seen in human history.
Personally, this has been my opinion of every action since TARP. Do you think the consequences of abusing the monetary system in this fashion are outweighed by the alternative of real fiscal actions involving reducing spending?
The U.S. Government has become an oligarchy, run by super wealthy insiders, and the well connected.
Exactly.
The House Republican leadership has failed the majority of the voters who put them into power. It needs a serious shakeup. Any congressional Republican who votes for this inadequate bill that does not address the debt problem should be challenged by a legitimate "deficit hawk" in GOP primaries next year.
