....that everything negotiated in this debt ceiling package is totally back loaded and will likely be overturned by a future Congress? You did notice that even the MSM has been referring to the tea bagger's in less than flattering terms? Has it escaped you that Obama has been talking for weeks about the need for more revenue? Did you happen to notice he never makes a public statement without mentioning those corporate jet owners? Almost all recent polls had even a majority of Republicans seeing the need for a balanced approach to debt issues, did you see those? Did you notice the social safety net was left untouched in the final package?
In the 2000 election, Ralph Nader continually made the point that there wasn't a bit of difference between the 2 parties. In 2011, a manufactured debt crisis was in fact a match of political gamesmanship and Obama took full advantage. He painted the difference between the 2 parties in the starkest of terms. He played politics with the teatards and I have no doubt, beat them to death. He gave the Dem's an incredible platform to run on next year.....and it all started with Paul Ryan's budget plan. There will be more of these skirmishes over the next year but it will be just more opportunity for Obama to paint the tard's as clueless, uncaring bastards.
So have your hissy for today but when the Dem's are running as the party that saved Medicare and wanted to tax billionaires but the Teathuglicans would have none of it......remember when your President started making that case. They are toast but they are too stupid to know it.
