Time's Halprin is saying there is REVENUE in the deal? Is this true?

[Change Happens]

Proposed debt deal contains cuts and revenue and/but Obama gets debt limit extension through 2013.

1. could be a provision about letting the Bush tax cuts expire which would indirectly raise revenue.

other than that I have not read anything about revenue.

I'll wait from confirmation from as source who isn't a complete jerk.

5. Possibly as the trigger Kerry was talking about yesterday.

"So Democrats want to ensure real leverage and are demanding that any so-called trigger include revenue raisers."

Other than that, I haven't read any anyone saying anything about revenues anywhere else, either.

6. I wouldn't believe Halperin if he said it is hotter than hell today, and

it is.

7. Now TPM is reporting that revenue can be worked into this deal...Via the commission...etc.

Which is where we are with either the cat food commissions and or the gang of six, seems like cooler heads have prevailed here,

THAT REVENUES HAVE TO BE PART OF ANY BALANCING THE BUDGET and lowering deficit debate!
