Valin Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 Red State: Daniel Horowitz December 17th, 2012 What is worse than striking out? Grounding into a double play. Not only is Boehner prepared to raise taxes – both through capping deductions and increasing marginal rates – he is now prepared to preemptively surrender our last point of leverage in one fell swoop. The media is now reporting that Boehner offered Obama a clean 1-year debt ceiling extension as part of the deal to raise taxes in return for fake spending cuts. The debt ceiling fight presents us with an enormous opportunity to change the subject from revenue to spending cuts. It also provides Republicans with a teachable opportunity t illustrate how absurdly Obama has squandered the entire $2.1 trillion debt increase in just 16 months.

SrWoodchuck Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 As the french might say, "flotteurs de merde." Get that bumbling sobber out of the Squeakers Chair. The House controls the "purse strings" of government. They're afraid of diminishing the Republican image? We have 4 more years of "can't wait" for Congress. Use the freaking authority you have, dammit! Let them pee & moan about how obstructionist the GOP is, and do it with a smile & pride. Then take them apart constitutionally, while we still have that document to guide us. Or not. Cry & blubber. Does anyone with two working synapses really believe Obama will move to the "center?"

Otherwise they'd be Democrats. So its only right they get the blame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
