So through all of the liberals whining here, it does seem one thing is obvious.

You want Democrats to not compromise where you want Republicans to cave..

More proof Democrats = the party of NO.. unless its someone else..

The Democrats were in control, but they could only block a filibuster for about four months.

Can we stop this charade that they care about paying their bills? That they care about deficits?

They want to borrow money at high rates from Chinese bureaucrats and have their kids and grandkids pay the price by living in squalor after they die.

Pathetic.
Except for the fact that revenues increased after tax cuts were passed, and deficits.. Do you really want to go there?

That leaves the rest of your posting accurate... Well there is nothing left...

One form of lying is parsing your words. Such as what you are doing here.

No it's not "filibuster" it is the "threat of filibuster" that will do the trick. There. Are you happy now?

Do you really think you are being clever?.......LOL

Greetings,

It is indeed unfortunate that the American People are experiencing such an unbelievably weak and pitifully inexperienced young man inhabiting the WH at such an incredibly crucial time in this nations history!

And yet the voters have no one to blame other than themselves for voting this acutely inept "Career Politician" into office !

May we the people (voters) never, ever again allow ourselves to be so totally "Bamboozled" by the campaign promises of inept politicians such as "The One" !!!

Those folks who voted for this lad absolutely need to have their big ole azzzzzzzzzes kicked !!!

Thanks Y'ALL / Old Sgt. Lamar

For 4 years the dems controlled congress totally. Obama was one of them.
If he was so great he would have stood out but of course he did not.

2 years they controlled congress and the WH and did nothing for the American people but tell us HELL NO when we said no to them.

4 years of total control with zero accomplishments that matter.

2 years of even having the WH and again zero accomplishments.

No wonder many liberal voters are unhappy. They know full well that without indys and many GOP votes they have no chance of winning elections and now the person who I believe was a gift, Obama, is ticking off his own base.

Obama is a gift that keeps on giving.

Likely the BIGGEST lie of the them all.

If you lower taxes, revenues will increase to counteract this effect on the budget.

That's why every single media outlet, every single economic expert, the CBO, and the GOP themselves at times, admit that extending the tax cuts for all would greatly increase the deficit.

But their right wing zombie lies go on and on.
