Through the Looking Glass
As we discussed the "compromise" with the Repiglickens during last night's edition of "Head-On With Bob Kincaid," I posited the question "How will Phlush Phlegmball, the OxyMoron spin this to make the GOP look like the victim in this sorry affair?"

So today, I've taken one for the team. Granted, forty-seven minutes into the program, I feel like my ears are going to bleed and my IQ is falling by the minute, but it had to be done, and my theory was NOT wrong.

Rather than immediately opine on the "deal," Phlush instead went straightaway to the phones, where the knuckle-walking, mouth-breathing, oatmeal-drooling, HouseHelmet-wearing dittomonkeys are frothing. They're mad, folks! They're angry that unemployment was tied to the tax cuts that the rich DESERVED.

See how it works?

Welcome to Kabuki America.

1. Of course they are mad
The republicans gave up stuff to keep the status quo not the other way arround.

2. Please elaborate
I don't see how the Repiglickens gave up anything. Granted, the dittomonkeys ARE "mad," but in the "insane" meaning of the word.

3. the framework Obama is putting forth does not just keep the tax cuts the way they were
It includes extensding unemployment and adding other tax cuts designed specifically to help in job creation and other targeted cuts. The pukes are getting nothing more than keeping what was already there for the last ten years for another two Obama on the other hand gets some of what he wanted.
