We Got Screwed And We Didnt Even Get Dinner And Wine!

Obama pulled it off all by himself and the Democrats are even fighting him.

This "agreement" on the extended tax cuts is a Trillion dollar stimulus package that will further hurt the country with little or no benefit to the people.

13 months of unemployment is outrageous. Thats 3 years without a job and everyone of them will become wards of the state and so dependant on government money that they will then vote for anything the Progressives ask for.

And what do the conservatives get, an extension for two years of the current tax structure. Not a reduction in Taxes, just an extension of the status quo, a tax rate that has been with us for 10 years.

It looks like the Liberals may stick their finger in their own eye. For once I am voting with the Liberals, against this travesty. I agree, he caved too soon. Hopefully the House will reject it after taking 2 weeks to fight over it.

It would be much easier if he has stood his ground and wasted the entire Lame Duck session on arguing this thing and failing to get ANYTHING done. Then in the first weeks of January, the newly elected 63 representatives and the Republicans could ride to the rescue by passing the extension and saving the people from the evil Taxman. It wont make a bit of difference to the taxpayer that its two weeks late. They will get their first checks shorted but the next one will be fine, showing how much the Republicans are on their side. This is the kind of spin we are used to from the Democrats, right.

But even with this out of the way....where is his focus on Jobs??? I havent yet heard anything about creating jobs...unless we are talking about the people that will be hired to write all those extra unemployment checks.....

And, can you imagine this? Who is going to be the first one to say, "Well, the recession is now over and we are cutting unemployment back to only 6 months where it was" before this fiasco? Do we really expect that it will ever again be just 6 months?
