We are crazy if we accept this fiscal cliff bluff

[Aerows]

after the mandate the President got that he should be sitting here post 11th hour playing games with a House that says they now will not accept the proposal from the Senate.

They struck out like children, and now it is time to call their bluff and put this Congress to bed because you can't reason with 3 year olds at this late hour.

1. to clarify

latest deal. Let them stand there and eat their own hearts out, because it won't be Democrats that are blamed.

7. And it appears that the House republicans are going to force him to take the win

and get on with the business of changing the course of this nation away from the suicidal charge we've been on for the last 30 years.

Oh, the irony.

9. *smirk*

2. Reid said no amended bill will be allowed, so it's a civil war on the Republican end.

And it won't be pretty.

6. Yep

4. What games is "he" playing?

There has been not a single statement from the WH today on all this. Whatever games are going on are being played inside the House Republican leadership struggle, and in your imagination.

10. Said it before - parachute packed Over the cliff it is.

Each time the Republicans refuse the latest deal, the next deal offers less. Eventually, the only deal available for the Republicans will be the one the progressives demand. It's nerve wracking to watch the process. If the Republicans say "No" to the latest deal, it will help insure the Democrats win the 2014 mid term elections.
