[Savoir Faire]

Even the Aussies realize their extremism.

He said "the extreme right Tea Party wing" of the Republican Party had held the national interest hostage

lol, what the hell does he even know. He should stick to keeping the aborigines in the bush and keep quiet.

he is an idiot based on his OWN words

He said it was imperative that Congress reach an agreement to support growth and avoid a "fiscal cliff" of deep government spending cuts and higher taxes in January, which he said could push the U.S. economy back into recession

sounds like a TEA PARTY platform to me. we spend too much money in this country, and we tax too much in this country. we dont need deep spending cuts, but we do need to cut spending, and we do need to not raise taxes, at least until the economy is much stronger, and even then ONLY if we need to do that to close a small budget deficit.

Duplicate thread, even if you were first.
