kairos12's JournalGOP Trap-Obama and Dems Don't Fall for It
It is a given that a large majority of Rethugs in the House will not vote for any "Grand Bargain" simply because Obama is for it. Where does that leave the Dems and the scenario that plays out:
1. A bargain is struck that cuts Social Security and Medicare in return for a few crumbs from the thugs.
2. Boner has to get a large number of Dems to support it because his party won't vote for it. The Dems vote for it because Obama is behind it.
3. In 2014 the Rethugs get to run ads during the election that say the Democrats voted to cut Social Security and Medicare.
4. Result--more Teabaggers in Congress and the rethugs have the momentum going into 2016.
President Obama-the Grand Bargain is a trap, don't fall it.

Decline inversely proportional to Fox News Ratings.

Two Party Monte
Let me see if I have this right. If the Rethugs win it's a Mandate, if the Democrats win it's time for magnanimous gestures and conciliations.
As an any street hustler knows, you only win at Monte if you don't play.
Boner and the Rethugs can go straight to a hopefully Haliburton ill-constructed hell.
The RNC Built That
A presidential campaign supported by cranky white men, financed by a nearly indicted co-conspirator of treason, which excluded every other segment of society that makes up our country, dedicated to preventing women from controlling their reproductive rights, and with the goal of ultimately turning our country into a kleptocracy.
Didn't work.
Reason Boner and the Owl Wouldn't Take the President's Call on Election Night
Fox Noise told them Obama Phones. Got scared about getting photographed.
One Solution for Talking With Wing Nut Relatives You Can't or Wont Cut-Off
I hear them as parental units talking in the Peanuts Specials. Wha-Wha-Whant!!
Petreaus Hearings
The right wing mob is in full thunder conspiracy mode because the "affair Petreaus" will deprive them of the opportunity to find out what secrets are supposedly behind the Benghazi attack. What dark of the moon landscape do these thugs live on? How about calling Petreaus to ask him how the Shrub and Cheney lied us into a war? That hearing I would turn in for.
Rmoney Biography
It is wonderful to know that every introduction of Rmoney from this day forward will begin with the line "Willard Rmoney, the losing Republican Presidential candidate of 2012." That stink is so bad it"s the one thing even his cayman accounts can't scrub off.

Can someone explain to me the steps needed to place links in your posts.
Rmoney's Planned Fireworks Fizzle
How fitting is it that Robme's planned fireworks for his anticipated victory did not occur in Boston Harbor. The voters pulled a Boston Tea Party on him and dumped his show in a electoral wipe out. The 47 percent snuck on board the SS Show Me The Money But Not the Taxes and turned out the lights. Standing in his hotel palace he must have had a mini bar moment when the fireworks were recalled by the voters. He should have read the label on the fireworks:
A-Assholes
C-Cant
M-Mimic
E-Empathy
