Congressional Black and Progressive Caucuses will call on President Obama to invoke 14th tomorrow
Just reported on the FOX News Channel.

I guess a deal won't happen.

14. You said this the last time.
May your brief "insult" be a happy one.

3. The 14th option won't stand up in court.
Edited on Sun Jul-31-11 05:11 PM by Countdown_3_2_1
Not this current court anyways.

Besides the pukes are just waiting for the President to pull this. They will impeach him.
Sure impeachment goes nowhere in the senate, but its a nice anchor to hang around the president's neck in the upcoming elections.

Bottom line this entire ordeal is 2012 election night politics.

Golly, I sure hope they try. Can't think of anything more likely to destroy them.

9. I don't try to reason with a teabag.
The only proper use is to let it steep.

11. "its a nice anchor to hang around the president's neck in the upcoming elections"
I don't think so! Clinton was Impeached in the House and aquitted in the Senate and left office with a 65% approval rating! The highest end-of-term approval rating of any President since Dwight D. Eisenhower.

Just let them try that BULLSHIT again.

8. Why would this make you think a deal will not happen?
No one is counting on these members to support the final deal in any large numbers.

12. Actually, I think they are afraid there will be a deal-- a really
atrocious one. And I think they are right.
