No, I mean that neither side is willing to compromise on anything with good faith. Therefore, both sides have contributed to the stalemate that is leading us to the fiscal cliff. In other words, our government, which is supposed to work for us, is too busy with their "mine is bigger than yours" games to do do their jobs effectively.

The sooner those of you who throw your blind support at your party, regardless of whether or not they are doing their jobs, realize that you're being played for fools the sooner we can start getting rid of most of these bozos and elect people who want to fix the country, rather than play games.

I hope the Tea Party is watching. They should not deal with this buffoon.

Mine too. An even more accurate analogy is when they say "I did it, but my sibling made me do it."

If you think that it was mutual, where did the GOP bend? We already know that Obama wanted the limit to be $250,000 and is willing to accept $450,000, plus only a 5% increase in cap. gains and the same estate tax we now have.

You can say that the GOP bent because they didn't want any tax-increases at all and now will accept some. But that's like walking in the auto dealer showroom expecting the dealer to give you a car for free and saying you went half-way by accepting to pay half the dealer cost.
