All the extremist left is screaming about the lack of “compromise” on the part of TEA partiers.

Well, let’s see. The debt ceiling is lifted to an absurd new high. Score one for the commies.

Although we will “save” two trillion dollars over the next ten years, the national debt will increase by another 7 trillion dollars minimum. Score another one for the commies.

Boehner, McConnell et al stepped in it again, gave away the farm (and country) again, lost any advantage the Repubs MAY have had over the Democraps again, and walk away smiling about it again. Score yet another one for the commies.

And finally, there is no requirement to go for a balanced budget amendment, a “sacred cow” to the TEA partiers. Still another one for the commies.

Yep, there’s no doubt about it, the terrorists won.

Just read they did not tell Boehner about Giffords’ return till one hour before the vote. She looks great considering what she went through. May G-d bless her.

Carlos, you’re singing my tune. It sure looks to me like they’ve once again managed to seize defeat from the jaws of victory.
All the “cuts” are based on the future congresscritters going along with them.
After next year we might get something done, but for now it’s too late to reach for the lubricant.

I’m glad Rep. Giffords is doing better, but should she really still be in Congress? I mean if she was a medical Doctor, would you let her treat your child?

Carlos: You’re spot on regarding how much we “save” from future “cuts” in spending. Hopefully more realize that cuts can only occur from an existing budget; basically, removing dollars from those already approved by law. Throttling the growth of the debt is the talking point the politicians use in an attempt to pursuade us they’ve actually done something.

I wish Ms Giffords well regardless of her politics…

I do hope she recovers fully, but in even the most positive realistic outlook, there’s a lot of damage. I do side with Jim McD on this, but many in the congress seem afflicted with something that affects their thinking, so she might bring up the average.

I am happy her recovery is coming along to a point where she is able to do this. Perhaps she will be able to return. I just heard her spokesperson say she is uncertain if she is even going to run for relection. – Lorica
