Yea...this will be Exhibit A on how a political party can, metaphorically speaking, gas themselves of any validity....

I love the leftist sheeple who continue to try to deflect blame from Obozo and Reid and then stand there with their hands over their ears shouting "la la la la la" when anyone presents hard evidence that contradicts their position that they don't want to hear.
Basically a tax hike, nicely disguised through common legislator-speak that involves a tax hike on the 98 percent of the U.S. population, but no tax hike for the other two percent....


Some proposal there....

Your from San Fransico so I understand your utter lack of insight into our current fiscal problems. Your party has, in the last 5 years, failed to produce a budget. Your party has failed to have a single member vote on your Hitler and Chiefs budget proposals. Your party has however managed to enslave millions and millions of peoPle in entitlement programs that are unsustainable and will eventually be defunded do to the lack of working folks money to pay for them. The beauty of all this is soon 60k will have to be the new 250k and once that happens the utterly mindlessly deficient voters that put him into office will rail against their fuhror.

We need to go off the cliff so everyone tastes what it's like to pay for free $hit. Your people rail against Bush but want to keep his tax cuts. I say screw that, get rid of them all.

I'm still stunned at the tremendous stupidity of the voters that put this moron back into office.

So have at it.

HALF of the national debt will be attributed to GW Bush's 8 years in office if we don't roll back those tax cuts he gave to the wealthy. HALF in 8 years. That is Republican thinking.
Your numbers are off there buddy. This is pure math ignorance.

You cannot cheat in the accounting for the cost of programs, then attribute the decrease in tax rates as a cost.....

Well, your taxes are going up if...
- Republican proposal is adopted as is.
- Republicans refuse President's proposal.

How does my being from SF make me not understand the insights of this fiscal problem? Where are you from genius? I bet your location makes you a genius! Come on now, tell us which smart state or city you are from.

Failed to produce a budget eh? Guess what? It takes the entire gov't to approve one. Do you know how many legislation your GOP has blocked and filibusted? Their entire strategy was to make Obama a one term president (and it obviously failed miserably). This is the party of h3ll no. The GOP said this themselves! They compromised on nothing!

And yes we are still recovering from a horrible economy from the Bush era. This is fact.

So the "mindless" voters voted in a candidate you didn't like huh? Boohoo! What if Mitt had won the election? The voters would not be called mindless huh? They would have done the "right" thing and voted in the "right" person huh? Give me a frickin' break!
