PREDICTION: Obama will fold like a house of cards just before his Ramadan Vacation begins, and the MSM will tell us for the entire month of August how BRAVE Obama was, and What a LEADER Obama was, just like after Obamacare passed.... Obama will fold and then claim he didn't and move on. Don't expect any epiphany from Odumbo the Magic Mulatto. The MSM will cover for him and only the hardcore left will have their panties in knot that they cam real close further Marxism deconstruction. Obama gave the Republicans a gift. There used to be a old Reagan era axiom that get the Democrats talking on taxes and you got them.

I suspect you have been guppied again.
You are so desperate for the GOP to fail that you will believe anything negative.

When was that picture taken?
Hes so childish, with the middle finger all the time. What an embarrassment.
While I believe he has flipped the bird several times, this is actually just a semi-famous photoshop. Somebody removed a finger so it looks like his middle finger is the only finger that's up, but you can see that it's altered, they didn't do a very good job. The original is easy to find.
It's telling that this is believable though. I even thought for a few seconds that it was real the first time I saw it until I took a closer look.

Yeah, and in December all those people who said McConnell and Boehner would cave and end the Bush tax cuts were proved right!
Oh hey, wait a minute...

but it won't matter as long as Boehner and McConnell stick to their guns.
They will only stick to their guns as long as we make them stick to their guns. This is a problem with a lot of Republican politicians these days. The moment we look away, they will slack off.

of course that “could” happen, but there is nothing in that link to Redstate that is substantive. It’s just hearsay and rhetoric.
Of course, again, we know from history that it “could” happen.
But if the GOP caves, then not only will Obama be re-elected, but the GOP will ensure the rise of a (small, but very damaging to the GOP) third party.....I think the pols know that, and since the only thing that motivates them is their jobs, I don’t look to them to cave. (But we’ll see).

How much did you stock up for Y2K back in the day...because you are far too easily fooled by internet drivel.

“(Problem is, Obama knows that if he caves the the House GOP he will lose re-election. But I think I am starting to see what Rush and others have been saying....Obama is going to lose no matter what, and this weeks events are merely clarifying that).”
And Boehner “caving” will only insure that both Obama AND Boehner will lose their relection bids, despite the MSM talking points predicting a Obama win in that circumstance.

I doubt they understand the principle involved, but as long as they take the right actions, OK.

I’m not so sure...I think a Boehner cave might well hand a victory to Obama, in the same way a Bush cave on “no new taxes” gave the Democrats victory on that point, AND gave the White House to Clinton (via Perot, obviously, but still).
Bottom line, though, I really think the GOP has the better poker hand here.

“Bottom line, though, I really think the GOP has the better poker hand here.”
No arguement there......I do too! They just need the stones to play it!

All the GOP needs to do to “put the screws to him” is to STAND FIRM.
