Budget talks: This is getting nasty

OK, well she acted like one while talking to that dude, Blitzer.

Dudes and broads. They make up the world.

Broads are frequently referred to as broads in Brooklyn, so sayeth my NY buddy.

 

But Joe, those people were supposed to be irrelevant. Yet they impacted the mid-terms. How did that happen?

 

Pretty funny for a party uncomfortable calling actual terrorists by name.

Also funny considering all of the calls for "civility".

 

Damn right. But that's when the Dems were in charge.

And even when they were in charge, they had to go Chicago-style to get the health plan through, using intimidation tactics. Hell, at that time, the regional party fought together as one on their principles. The Dems were too damn busy making sure the stimulus checks went to the right supporters to bring about real change for the middle class of America, so the pendulum has swung the other way, and swung hard.

 

I actually watched CNN (Blitzer) to get a truly balanced or even left-wing perspective, to balance it against Cavuto's often times politics in a Starbucks cup.

To my astonishment, it was harsh and direct at the commander in chief.

It's a commentator..I've heard him a ton of times in different venues, but from hearing his take on liberal reaction: Obama might as well do an LBJ 68 announcement tonight. No way, now that they've gotten their really important issues pushed through, will the left turn out to defend this guy next November.

 

Was just going to post that.

 

You really should wait and see who the GOP nominates before saying the left won't turn out for Obama in 2012. It's just foolish.

You really think they'd shrug and stay home if Bachmann or Perry were atop the ticket? Maybe if it was Huntsman, but not if the tea party is playing kingmaker for the GOP.

 

As I said pages ago, the Progressive Caucus would never sign on to a compromise bill:


@mitchellreports -- Andrea Mitchell

74 member Progressive Caucus Rep Keith Ellison now saying they will vote no. "preventing the worst from happening is not enough"



Keep trying to tell me that the left wing of the Dem caucus is any different than the "Tea Party".
