1. I passed because I honestly don't know . . .

[yourout]

2. Me to....the devil is in the details.

[Ken Burch]

4. fair enough...I don't know for sure, either.

n/t.

3. strongly mixed feelings, and still a lot of things to learn about it.

[frazzled]

5. Minimally, we at least won't have to listen to this for 2 months

So that's a good thing. Frankly, I was getting to the point where that was my only goal: pass it, don't pass it, I don't even care. I'm just so sick of hearing about it. I've never really felt that way before.

6. I do not know...but I like wild things

I am tentative.

8. Here they are, then...

[Evergreen Emerald]

13. Hahaha... Thank you sir. N/t

7. George Bush Jr. is high-fiving tonight

He won the debate about his tax cuts, 98% of them were renewed permanently. The republicans have managed to scare the Democrats into adopting "tax cuts are the solution".

Who knew Dubya would be vindicated.

9. Neither good or bad by itself...

As is, it's "okay" and pretty close to what I expected from a compromise. However, we have to see what round two brings. It's way too early to declare some kind of monumental shift in our national economic discussion. We'll see what happens. I'm more hopeful than I've been in recent years.

10. You poll is better than mine, good job.

[OmahaBlueDog]

11. I voted "Good Thing", but "Wild Thing" was a brilliant option

Wasn't "Good Thing" a Fine Young Canibals song?

[Ken Burch]

15. Indeed...I'd forgotten that.

It was on the "Tin Men" soundtrack.

12. I voted good thing. Wild Thing was a tempting choice, though.

The Republicans are unhappy. They're angry and feeling butthurt. That's got to mean that this is a very good thing. At least that's my scientific analysis of the situation.

14. I guess less bad than it could have been.

Keep in mind we have committed to doing stupid things and the debate is how cruel, counter-productive, and stupid we will be.

About good as it gets circumstantially? Maybe, but bad is automatic. I think the cliff would have gone a long way toward governmental and fiscal sanity over the long term but we punted a bit so we'll have to see what shakes out over the next scam or two to figure out how bad or not bad we came out.
