It’s moral to the beltway because they depend on tax and spend to keep their jobs!!!! They live in a fantasyland.

The anecdotal evidence just bumps up against one.

The Obama voter with buyer's remorse.

The senior with a clear eye for the culprit.

And now the chief executive who voted for Obama says heads of companies are refusing to grow while terrified to speak.

The dark matter of the political universe, the ninety per cent not sexy enough for the news, loathes and despises O.

Another excellent post!

Did you know that in a normal economy, there are two people vying for one job?

Today, there are five people vying for that one job.

This is Carter redux. The youts are moving back in with their parents and flipping burgers...if they are that fortunate.

I didn’t catch either live, but I saw a clip of Obama ordering Boehner and McConnell before him, as if they are his lessors.

I was disgusted and appalled and though I shouldn’t have been, I was shocked by Obama’s unpresidential, unprofessional behavior.

He came across as a petty, petulant, arrogant bully and I don’t see how anyone outside of his base could view it otherwise.

A truly sad attempt at trying to portray leadership.

It appears that the Democrats actually have a plan. It goes like this:

1. Demand that the Republicans take the leadership role in solving the nation's debt crisis since they constitutionally control the purse strings, i.e., demand Republicans attack the problem.
2. Wait till the Republicans produce a plan(s)
3. Attack the Republicans and their plans as being greedy, selfish, uncaring, extreme (did I leave out any... you can add to the adjectives as you like)
4. Further attack the Republican when they respond to your attacks as being partisan, pro robber baron big business, intransigent... again you can add to the list)
5. Depend on MSM to carry their water and present them as the caring “party of the people” while they hide their plans to grab as much power as possible through bigger government.

Note that the stimulus money is almost gone. Where did it go? It was “consumed” in “preserving” government jobs and other union jobs for Democrat constituencies. On the whole, the fight over the debt issue is really about fighting against any shrinkage in the size of the government at national, state and local levels, particularly among those who pay no taxes under the current Tax structure (50%). (Note that the size of the Executive Department has grown substantially over the last two years (20%?). The Republicans really lost the tax debate in the December negotiations when they agreed to give a 2% reduction in the Social security payroll tax. Do you think the Democrats will ever agree to reinstate that?

Stand tall Republicans and fight back. Draw a line in the sand now or we will crash and burn. The seas may not be turned back by the Republicans, no one can control that, not even Obama. But it will be enough if we can now start to reverse the Tsunami of debt we can see coming at us from the 2008 election and its aftermath.

———Where did it go?-——

It is being recycled in drips and drabs into the President Obama Re election Campaign Fund.

Please recall.... The Democrat Party is a Criminal Enterprise

The GOP reminds me of the team that needs all 4 downs to get into the end zone after the opposing defense has left the field..

That's because many of the guys wearing their jerseys are actually on the other team.

Some one behind the curtain is pulling Obama’s strings. He is not his own man

I heard that the senate dem leaders Reid, chucku schumer, Turbin, etc, did not like the deal because the cuts would be up front, right away instead of promises with Bush1 and Reagan later a few years from now, never to be realized.

The R's have finally realized that the D's lie about cutting the budget, later, EVERYTIME.

You are quite right. On the track we’re on, I think the next generation will refuse to pay, will repudiate the debt. And they will be right to do so - it isn’t THEIR debt.

LOL. Can the Boss ever live down endorsing that jerk in the White House?

Nevertheless, you flatter this scribbler. You are much too kind.
