Not going to work. YOU OWN ALL OF THIS, REPUBLICANS.

What's more - the Defense budget will be the next agenda, and WILL BE sliced down to .000001% of the budget (as in a friggin penny)

If we could cut the Pentagon budget down to a level where we are no longer the world's policeman, we would have surpluses everywhere else. This will never happen unless we all demand COMPLETE CAMPAIGN FINANCE REFORM (CCFR)!!! Spread the word!

Too bad for you.. that the country is on to your bullshit.

he be in an neverending cycle of naughty mat time outs?

The stupid morons who elected this idiot will believe this morons line of thinking.

This country has to spend more time educating people and less time monitoring people's personal habits like SEX, DRINKING, and DRUGS.

This is pure fantasy that GOP members can THINK or REASON.

Can anyone verify this?

Our dad is a drunk and compulsive liar.

Maybe because Boehner is unable to move the TP group and any bill passed in the House had to go through the Senate and for the fact Boehner does not want to appear weak in bringing enough votes to get a bill out except with Democrats help. This one is yours Boehner, run with it.

Cheetos are imbeciles.

but the turd is in your pocket. Now see if you can find the dry end.

It was the GOP that created this situation in the first place. And that circus of last week just underscored who is to blame.

If Obama didn't veto the republican bills from Boehner's house we would have never had any problems. Mr. Obama, put down that vetoing pen.!

Please list the bills Obama has vetoed.

We'll wait.

You're right! If only Obama had had the courage to sign all those horrible social engineering bills. Or if he had just found it within himself to sign Paul Ryan's draconian budget that destroys the social safety net and guts the poor and middle class.

Hey, but at least we'd still have a bloated, runaway military budget, right? Gotta keep things in perspective!

Get out.

He may be able to obstruct, but he is not and has not the stature
of the President.

If you have to claim you're reasonable and responsible? You know
it's just posturing.

interesting, as his ass is out in two days.

The Sabotage was real. This Nation needs to be reminded of that!

Oh yeah, you guys.

Leading is NOT doing what others want you to do.

"We’ve been reasonable and responsible" How do they even say this shit with a straight face?

... only two times have we had trouble and both times it was or is the republicans fault
and the debt ceiling rise lets us pay our bills ..... you know the bill rung up by George W
Fucktard.

Not just by partisans like us. President Obama's approval rating is well into the 50's right now. Republican congressional approval? Less than half. Who is the public going to blame? Hmmm?

"We didn't do anything."



Exactly.


(besides, Congress makes laws, not the President or Executive Branch. US Government 101)

He and the Democratic Party won the election.

Republicans lost.

They need to live with it. They may control the House, but they lost the election. The tide is turning against them.

Many, many Republicans don't want cuts to Social Security either.

And Lindsay Graham seems to have forgotten that South Carolina is home to a lot of retired veterans. They are not going to like his insistence on cuts to the CPI increases.

Boehner needs to remember this:

http://thinkprogress.org/justice/2012/12/21/1351161/democratic-house-candidates-now-have-a-nearly-12-million-vote-lead-over-the-republicans/

Democrats would be in charge in the house if the Republicans had not gerrymandered their way to power.

And the Norquist pledge. Republicans have never bargined in good faith, only agreeing to unspecified changes in tax deductions. Never has the GOP put up anything which the CBO could score, leaving us to believe the wild claims of $800 billion in revenue. Besides, all analysis of the Republican proposal points to more tax cuts for the weathy while the middle class gets stuck with tax increases. And they never show how austerity can spur economic growth, which is the only real way out of the problem. Boehner's comment that &quot w)e've been reasonable and responsible" is downright laughable as they have been neither.

Yeah, that's going really well in Europe. Look at Greece, they're in an economic boom.

The Senate does not have the constitutional authority of the the purse strings. The House does. Who controls the House? Why that would be ineffective Boner and the rest of the Republicans.

The Senate already passed a budget bill they sent to the House for consideration - IN FEBRUARY. So Boner you're full of orange shit as usual.

he might have some issues especially if he believes the BS that is spewing from his own mouth.

you worthless orange dolphin-felching piece of gorilla scat.

That train has already left the station and you're the one standing on the platform with the dunce cap on your head. We know very well who's to blame and it's not the President.

Today's GOP is a shadow of its former self. These creatures are nothing like the civic minded republicans of 50 years ago. Today the perty is filled with greedy,selfish,intolerant ,racist,homophobic, whacked out fundamentalists and fascists. Too bad we don't have a viable third and fourth political parties. Hopefully the GOP becomes extinct .

Lindsey Graham On Fiscal Cliff: 'Hats Off To The President. He Won.'

Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) used his "Fox News Sunday" appearance to congratulate President Barack Obama on his impending victory in the so-called fiscal cliff negotiations, predicting that tax rates will go up on people making more than $400,000 or $500,000 as a result of the coming Senate deal.

"Hats off to the president. He won," Graham said. "What have we accomplished? Political victory for the president. Hats off to the president. He stood his ground. He's going to get tax rate increases, maybe not at [$]250[,000], but on upper-income Americans. And the sad news for the country is we've accomplished very little in not becoming Greece or getting out of debt. This bill won't affect the debt situation."

reasons Greece is in a pickle was because of their wealthy citizens evading from paying their taxes and Goldman Sachs as well as other Banks were paid millions by the Greek Government to cook the books on loans. Now we read some things about Mitch McConnell. Boner is also in bed with Wall Street Lobbyists and banks like Goldman Sachs and JP Morgan. Our sorry American media, don't report or investigate these things. Even that meeting by GOP members of the senate and House shows a dereletion by the Amerixcan media on investigative reporting. If you look up the definition of conspiracy, this would fit the meaning.

The only way America can get rid of this problem, is to rid herself of the cancer. That cancer is the GOP. The people that sent these people to office, need to understand the problem these people are causing this country. It is not just these people in congress either but institutions like the media. FOX for example is owned by Murdoch. When you have a snall group of people owning or monopolizing American Industries like Murdoch, that can be even worst that it being state owned. It is called Vulture Capitolism.

Boner cannot grasp the simple idea that nobody can lead when those you are supposed to be leading are all running around throwing temper tantrums because they don't get to run things.

The GOP remind me very much of a group of spoiled rich kindergarteners whose parents never said the word NO! to them. I expect to see McConnell hold a press conference and tell the world he is going to hold his breath until he turns blue because Reid and Obama didn't bow down and kiss his high and mighty arse.

Now they have once again screwed the poodle, but this time, at least some of the news outlets are not spreading the blame but heaping it squarely onto the GOP where it belongs.

No one is fooled by their latest lies.

Truth is, they NEVER wanted to make the wealthy pay even one red cent more. They wanted to keep the Bewsh tax cutz for the wealthy permanent while gutting social programs and not touching the MIC, not touching corporate welfare and pinning the bill on the lower 98%. They keep forgetting this isn't the Bewsh '00s they live in and there are no more rubberstamps for their theft.

Hope the attempted heist was worth it.

If people don't get the message now that you're all a bunch of obstructionist assholes, then maybe they'll catch a clue tomorrow morning.

And by the way, John, thank you very much for the nice reduction I'm about to see in my next paycheck.

Boner! Seriously these guys aren't happy with a fair share....they want everyone to come to them with cap in hand.....Fuck them .....Put in like everyone else you parasites.

and when exactly did shrub, for example, ever do that?

And, we have real short memories, too, apparently. It's not that Boehner is living in the alternate Fox News universe. It's that he thinks we ALL are. It never ceases to amaze me how so many people can keep electing and reelecting representatives who think so very little of them.

"Americans elected Obama to lead ... but he just won't do what we tell him to, and we won't follow him." Is that what you're saying, Mr. Boehner?

His name is totally misleading. The man hasn't had a boner in 4 years for sure. Maybe he should stand up to the teabag branch of the GOP and show the world he can lead.

What a pathetic piece of self-pitying whiny blubbermouth he is.

STFU and get to work.

That man can twist and hypocritize anything!

Blame where blame is due, and you are CERTAINLY due a lot of blame.

...instead, the House is proposing to amend it, then send it back to Senate. Perhaps Boehner will take another shot at Plan B?

You traded in all of your Scrabble letters for new letters and that means you lose your turn. Rules are rules.

is neither reasonable nor responsible, boehner.

filed under the word stupid.

Are republicans really just secret drama queens?

And I'll say it again, this time with greater emphasis:

[font size="4"]Boner, go fuck yourself![/font]

The pukes always bitch that the Pres offers no plan or whatever yet neither do they. The R's dont want to come up with something, they see it as better to say no than think of a proposition.

Another reason they should be blamed and shunned: Grover Norquist, he said that since we went over the cliff it is ok for pukes to vote on the tax increase because it is actually a tax cut. This is the most unAmerican thing there is: Fuck the country over to save face politically. I hope the 113th is better, but we all know the 114th will be since I really can't see the pukes keeping the House after what all 2013 has in store.
