Showing HOW bi-partisan he really is. s/

Useless empty suit. Its not a "Manufactured" crisis. The fiscal cliff is real and no matter what happens in January you are driving right over it, at high speed.

The Pubbies will cave on the rates, the economy, already in pre recession mode will tip into a double dip which could be even deeper than the first dip and you will continue to blame Bush and the Republicans.

I truly believe that in four years as we wind up the 2016 election we will still be barraged with "If only the wealthiest among us (thosee making more than 50,00 a year by then) would pay just a little bit more, if they would just pay their fair share, we could clean up the mess we inherited.

The night is always darkest before the dawn. Its a shade of pitch black out like I´ve never before experienced, and I see no glimmer of reprieve.

If Obama wants to go over the cliff over $85 billion - then let him! That´s his decision.

Why should he compromise? The Republicans are too busy negotiating with themselves.

Wealthy Americans: do you have a job?
You are wealthy


Government is the answer. Here is your free phone,, free education, free food.. Housing allowance, day care allowance, free health care...

Dang... I want to join this group..


But: he who has the gold makes the rules.

The only way out of this mess is to increase taxable income. You do that by less regulation and job killing crap like Obamacare, and allowing the producers to expand businesses and hire workers. Giveaways to the nonproductive moochers don´t generate tax revenue. Raising rates just drives more income out of the country.

Ø is not a team player.

This issue demonstrates the complete ineptitude of the Republican party leadership.

The word "fair", and the term "fair share" have been used over and over for months without a hint of rebuttal from the pubbies.

I would bet the ranch that a small minority of the populace knows what the percentage and/or total dollars of taxes collected from the top 2%, 5%, or 10% are.

In addition, I´m sure very few people know that many working people not only pay NO income tax, but get money sent TO them from the IRS!

Give the self-reliant a chance to shine: go over the cliff.

Its not a "Manufactured" crisis. The fiscal cliff is real and no matter what happens in January you are driving right over it, at high speed.

The trouble is that nothing Duh Wun is willing to do will fix the cliff nor even stop its growth. The fiscal cliff is the National Debt. Not one word that Geithner claimed to be "0bama´s plan" will help with the "fiscal cliff" problem.

Any/all new sources of tax revenue should be dedicated to paying off the debt, not increasing the entitlement class.

The only measures that will slow the inevitable plunge over the fiscal cliff are measures that cut spending. NOT just the growth of spending, but actual dollars spent.

He´s sounding like a stuck record. Class warfare at its finest.

He knows the GOP will give him all he wants so why compromise.

The House needs to not compromise on taxes. Don´t pass any tax or spending increases. All tax and spending matters have to orignate and be approved in the Congress. The President can go play basketball, jump in the lake, I don´t care.

Obama. The very name makes me retch.

The last thing the Obamboozler wants to do is make the economy healthy, wealthy and wise. The goal of Obummer is to keep ´em dumber in the Summer, witless in the Winter, simple in the Spring and foolish in the Fall (especially at election time)!
In plain word, he is out to break the back of small business, get more and more voters on welfare and food stamps and weaken this country any way possible.

He´s sucking the soul out of America one executive order, one demagogic statement, and one intransigence at a time. Lord do I wish this nightmare was over! We´re in the early stages of a Uganda or Zimbabwe meltdown and when the free phones are out of minutes and the EBT card won´t go through and Section 8 can´t make up the rest of the rent, we´ll bear witness to the full flowering of class-envy of the entitlement deprived, and manic rage brought about by the despicable Communists huddled together like thousands of little Shmeagles coveting their ´´Precious´´ power.

This clown doesn´t compromise period! That´s not included in the Alinsky handbook. He uses the thuggish methods that served the Chicago mayors and union bosses so well. 5 weeks later I´m still at a loss to understand how the country was duped into voting for him again after the disaster of the previous four years.

After you Bub. Haven´t you been told yet -- you are one of those despised wealthy.
Your resident pay is now above 400,000 and your perks at millions we dare you to do as Mitt Romney would have done. GIVE ALL YOUR PAY to lower the national debt you created.
The GOP should point out daily your personal take so your beloved 47.5 % will know just how unfair and unbalanced you share with them.

Brings to mind John Adams´s observation about Elbridge Gerry: that he had the kind of obstinacy that would risk great things to gain small ones.

I don´t understand why the Repubs don´t tell Obama to kiss our rear ends. Let the fiscal cliff happen and don´t raise the debt ceiling!! It won´t change who will vote for who 2 years from now.

like anyone thought this incompetent troll would compromise.............
