...and off the cliff we go

happy fiscal clef and gun ban to u too and all Americans. America land of the free!!! lol and home of the brave!! free and brave but ur guns soon will be talkn from u all.

Now the Congress is taking 40 min to talk about naming a post office.

I love these tirades. They are always written at about a third grade level. In a vernacular that reminds me of a dumb kid on the playground.

These are the sort of folks that got Obama elected to a second term. People with the perspicacity of an eight year old.

Obozo ??????

Obunghole.

Happy new year folks!

welp its all fixed for 2 more months so get ready for a repeat performance late March.Its all a big show from here on out.

it don't matter, cause all "joe public" cares is that he got money for mortgage, gas, football, food, beer, and what ever else joe fucking average wants cause they don't give a gooses nose about politics.

The irony is that if we Greeks had the firearms you Americans possess our Parliament and politicians would have been "vaporized".

But sadly we do not have the balls.

:thefooltarot:


just like the fool... off we go!

fiscal-cliff-showdown-already-damaged-economy

Even if eleventh-hour wrangling among lawmakers yields a solution to the worst-case fiscal cliff scenario, some say damage has already been done.

The political brinkmanship has hurt investor confidence and consumer spending, and if a prolonged stalemate drags into the early months of 2013, the price of Washington’s inaction on the economy could be even steeper.

shouldn't they be working around the clock to get this done if the care about the people so much?

The Congres = FAIL

The Senate = FAIL

The House = FAIL

The President = FAIL

The Bank Cartels = FAIL

The FBI, BATF, CIA, = FAIL

The Budget = FAIL

The Economy = FAIL

The Press = FAIL

The Supreme Court = FAIL

It's all up to YOU folks, you have to bring this out of control monkey its ticket.

None of the FAILED will.

The Constitution has a "RESET" clause in it?

Perhaps its time it was used?

Wow, seems the GOP's "Tea Party" are the real Talibans!

:overcliff:

He did that so in the next election they can say the GOP voted to raise everyone's taxes while they got a pay raise.

SOmeone from Greece should know right?

Your economy is in perfect working order right?

Yes, for 5 years it's making a steady and slow nose-dive...

No America by 2016...

It's a controlled descent just like in 1929!

Murdoch: Senate Deal 'Won't Fix Economy'

Media baron Rupert Murdoch doesn't see the Senate's fiscal cliff vote early Tuesday as a victory for anybody, especially President Obama.

Indeed, he tweets, the deal overwhelmingly passed by the Senate is likely to tank the economy.

Senate-Passed Deal Means Higher Taxes on 77% of Households

The budget deal passed by the U.S. Senate today would raise taxes on 77.1 percent of U.S. households, mostly because of the expiration of a payroll tax cut, according to preliminary estimates from the nonpartisan Tax Policy Center in Washington.

More than 80 percent of households with incomes between $50,000 and $200,000 would pay higher taxes. Among the households facing higher taxes, the average increase would be $1,635, the policy center said. A 2 percent payroll tax cut, enacted during the economic slowdown, is being allowed to expire as of yesterday.

Every time they seem to reach an "11th-hour agreement" and avert these inflated crises.

In my opinion this time will be no different. It's all a show, really. Both sides wait till the last minute, strike a deal then parade themselves as the hero of the day.

It's designed to give us faith in their ability to get things done, but in reality they're powerless against the unending financial complexities they themselves created.

Just my two cents, but that's how it's consistently appeared to me over the last 30 years.

If they raise Social Security taxes back up, they have less of an excuse to cut Social Security benefits or jigger the inflation formula.

Of course Rupert Murdoch will never have to live on Social Security so he doesn't care about that.

Thread: CLIFF DEAL HITS A NEW SNAG with House Republicans !

The DOW is just a number the federal media throws around to convince people that the 10% voluntary contribution to the Wall Street mafia is a good thing.

Keep on spending, consumers. That e-mail you got today says you are worth more $$$!!!

If we are going off the cliff, keep what monies you can. W4- up deductions, set them to something like 15 you can always change them back by the end of the year IF you want to... Just let thm know this is not a joke and we aren't laughing
