The Milk deal is a Schummer payoff. I have no problem with that.

I don’t want any deal. I don’t want subsidies for any product, and I don’t want entitlements to be extended any further. I’ll pay $8/gallon for milk, and I’ll do without ethanol....also please don’t tell me oil/gas is subsidized; the lion’s share of oil subsidies is for the Strategi Oil Reserve; Obama will just dole that out this winter for all the poor peoples in the NE who don’t want to pay for their heating oil.

Jim Jeffords ring a bell? We could have kept him in the Republican voting column through most of his career if we'd simply caved in to him on the milk price support items he wanted.

That was peanuts compared to the costs of letting him slip over to the Democrats so they could organize the Senate!

It looks like somebody on the Democrat side remembers those halcyon days ~ which makes me wonder immediately WHOSE VOTE IS FOR SALE!

Were do cows live? Who votes on behalf of cows? ~ gotta' be some Dem senators in New England, New York, Minnesota, Michigan, Wisconsin ~~~ California perhaps? Ever see the price of cheese there? Then there's Oregon ~ and its vast herds of dairy cows.

Rather than complain the writer should work backwards into who has cows and what do they want for them? Then we know where the Democrat wink links are.

But why is Schummer going or a milk deal? This is a minor issue in New York with their vast numbers of lactase deficient chilluns.

Gotta' be a state where there's a weak Democrat senator who has an awful lot of dairy cows making up a disproportionate part of the state economy.

No deal. Over the cliff will do more to restore some sanity. Pull an all out campaign to blame the Democrats and King Obama. It will be hard.

1. Spend money we don’t have.
2. Spend money we don’t have.
3. Spend money we don’t have.
4. Spend money we don’t have.

Thanks, but no thanks. Here’s a radical idea for the parasites to ponder: Reduce the size and cost of government NOW or we’ll do it for you.

I'm done with it too...

So damn sick of the trend and the way this nations mindset has gone rotten.

I did at least get a little revenge... yesterday I did 9 driveways and about 1/4 mile of sidewalks with my mongo (I made that word up, it's huge) snowblower... I like to take care of the oldsters and my neighbors, but I skipped right around the ones I noted with the obama signs in October. Yes, it felt good.

Hey gaffer, I agree with you. Pain is coming. A man can choose his time for pain. Let’s make it now.

What the hell is a “mini deal”? Must be part of Obozos brain.

100% WRONG. A bad deal would be wrong, but the cliff would mean massive tax hikes WHICH OBAMA AND THE LEFT WOULD LOVE TO HAVE.

We should be saving the tax rates we can PERMANENTLY. If its protecting everyone below $500,000 / yr income that is good enough so long as we cut the spending as well and make it permanent.

Only a PERMANENT EXTENSION is worth it.

No deals —

Let the automatic spending cuts kick in

and let the unemployment benefits expire

and let SSI withholding go back up to where it was

and let the House go back home and enjoy the holidays

and let the liberal media wail all they want.

I suggest you all e-mail McConnell. Yapping back and forth to each other is not doing any good except to make us feel better.

I gladly do without Ethanol too. I remember when I got better gas mileage before that crap was added and I want it back

You done good. If they ask, tell them to call FEMA, since Obama cut the red tape.
