Just to give you some perspective on the numbers Krauthammer was decrying this morning. Washington Examiner:
Rep. Michele Bachmann, R-Minn., one of the House’s highest-profile conservatives, said that Democratic discontent highlights the difference between the two parties.
“The compromise that was forged wasn’t rich enough for Speaker Pelosi and the Democrats,” Bachmann said on NBC’s “Today” show, referring to Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif. “They want the taxes up even higher. And that’s really where the line of demarcation is in this discussion.”
Speaking separately, Tim Kaine, chairman of the Democratic Party, said Democrats objecting to Obama’s tax deal may be showing voters in their districts that they have “some spine” and predicted that the two-year extension of the lowered income tax rates would eventually help Democrats.
“By extending it two years, and I think this is going to happen, you’re putting the debate about tax cuts for the wealthiest right in the heart of the presidential election. I think the president feels very confident he can make the case,” Kaine said on CBS’ “Early Show.”
The measure appears headed for Senate approval after negotiators added a few sweeteners to promote ethanol and other forms of alternative energy.
Tax provisions designed to increase production of hybrid automobiles, biodiesel fuel, energy-efficient homes, coal and energy-efficient household appliances would be extended through the end of 2011.
There is no precise timetable for passage in the Senate, but a test vote was set for Monday afternoon that appears likely to demonstrate overwhelming support for the legislation. Supporters say it would help accelerate a sluggish recovery from recession.
“This bill is not perfect, but it provides the economic boost middle-class families and small businesses in Nevada and across America need,” said Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev. “Middle-class families and small businesses will see their taxes go down.”
At the insistence of Republicans, the measure includes a more generous estate tax provision. That infuriated Democrats already unhappy with Obama for agreeing to extend tax cuts at incomes of more than $200,000 for individuals and $250,000 for couples.
In all, the package would cost about $855 billion, according to a preliminary congressional estimate.
“If we pass this agreement as written, it says we are going to continue the Bush policy of trickle down economics for at least two more years, and in my mind, that is absurd,” said Sen. Bernie Sanders, a Vermont independent.
Vice President Joe Biden has told Democrats in closed-door meetings this week that they are free to oppose the agreement but it might unravel if they do.
“If it’s take it or leave it, we’ll leave it,” said Rep. Lloyd Doggett, D-Texas, after a closed-door meeting in which rank-and-file Democrats chanted, “Just say no.”
Despite significant criticism from fellow Democrats, Obama has said the sweeping measure is necessary to help the struggling economy recover from the worst recession in decades.
Senate GOP leader Mitch McConnell has said he expects most Senate Republicans to support the tax bill. Prominent House Republicans back it, too.

The problem with calling it “cost” as we all know is that any time the government doesn’t get our money it’s considered a cost. When framed in that manner it just adds to the notion that it’s all their money in the first place.
Still, more pork equals more votes, just like always. We should note which R senators vote for this piece of carp so we know who needs to be removed soonest. I wish it had been over for a while with the elections, but it’s just starting and we cannot rest, ever.
cranky, this is the same Congress that gave us Obamacare. Why is everyone amazed that the people who added “deem and pass” to the political lexicon are still acting like petty tyrants?

Am I missing something. Maintaining the status quo is now stimulative? Who is getting a tax cut, Hairy Reed, you lying greasy fuck?

How is keeping the taxes the same a boost? Our small businesses taxes are going down?
Woot! Why didn’t someone tell me?
I’m not amazed at all, except with the jackass team R guys who agreed to this in the first place. And I guess I’m not amazed as much as surprised how dense they are. The shenanigans of Congress are par for the course, they just need to be met with resistance for a little while longer. If after that we have shenanigans from team R, we send them packing soonest.
Carin – Great minds. ;-)
DeMint has cowardly backed away from his promise to filibuster
The MFM is doing pretzel twisting contortions to make this out to be something it most certainly is not.
So, the most prominent reframing of the meaning of words is “cost” when referring to people getting to keep their own money as opposed to having it stolen by the government, and “tax cuts” referring to keeping the current tax rates. How many more words will they re-define before the year is out?
If DeMint can’t keep his promise he had better start thinking about spending more time with his family.
I’m a bit torqued today, in case you didn’t notice.
I don’t know why, but I’ve actually begun to harbor a hope(?), thought(?), impression(?) — I don’t even know what to call it it is so indistinct — that just as a wave can form in the people to demand their representatives ‘bring home the bacon’ in federal revenues to be spent in district, so a force may develop in the people to demand that their representatives not ‘bring home the bacon’, not add to the cumulative debt of the nation, start to seriously cut the size and scope of the federal government, and actually compete amongst themselves (the representatives, that is) to demonstrate that they can shine in this regard. Granted, it hasn’t taken hold yet, but again (it’s vague), I think this stance is coming.
And I can’t help but believe it’ll be a good thing when it arrives.
Carin – Great minds. ;-)
I guess Harry just expects the voters to be really fucking stupid.
I hope you’re right, sdferr, because without that force from the electorate to not spend, we are surely doomed.
when i go into a convenience store
and bring my goods up,and lay ’em on the counter
and hand the clerk a piece of paper that
i crayon doodled on, for payment..
and say to clerk guy-“this bills not perfect,but..”
Carin – Obviously, the MFM and the Dems are really fucking stupid, or really fucking dishonest. Or both, no need to rob them of the opportunity to be both.
flat headed crippled prison farm kids in boxes should be negotiable tender in buttons’ world.
Has there ever been a more clear and illustrative example of how the political class simply does not give a flying fuck what is in the best interests of the American people?
parched fresh out of the box
flat headed crippled prison farm babies
i believe is the proper term
I beg forgiveness.
Carin,
Harry Reid has every reason to think the voters are really fucking stupid, considering that so many of them voted to re-elect him.
Demint is describing some different numbers in a bulk email that just went out today.
It’s all Calvinball at this point.
no- it’s
parched,fresh outta the box,flat headed midget

btw- congrats on ur colts
but do u really want to come to ne[new england]
also- i don’t know if u know
but there is a popular t shirt in these parts
the front says
i hate peyton manning
and the back says
eli sucks too
cuz, the giants spoiled our perfect season- which
i guess is a good thing- cuz we’d be hearing about it forever
sorry about the colts injuries.. but not so much
the pats got a great draft next year..
fortunately, or unfortunately
we’ll be around for a few years
My 2 favorite t-shirts are “I do not suffer from ADD, I just … Hey, do I like waffles?” and “Rex Ryan sucks, but Bellicheat swallows”
– As long as the Democrats can keep both hands on the lid of the cookie jar nothing will change in our country.
– Bummblefuck has it exactly right unfortunately. Neither side wants to get hung with the blame of higher taxes. It’s blame avoidance politics, at the expense of all else, at its worst.
– If we can’t find a way to reverse this we are going down. Right now our *leaders* aren’t leading anything. Both sides are fighting over the carcass of America.
– The real problem that no one even wants to mention is that at this point it’s not clear that anything can be done any longer to stop the slide.
[T]he political class simply does not give a flying fuck what is in the best interests of the American people[.]
It’s not so much that they don’t care as it is that they think that what is in the best interests of the political class is the best interest of the American people.
The chess analogy keeps coming up, and it’s a good analogy as far as it goes. This is political warfare by demonstration and maneuver. What neither side realizes is that they’re maneuvering right off the edge of the earth.
fyi
my favorite t-shirt was
on the front-it had a pocket
and cigarette smokers notice shit like that..
and right above the pocket was the bands name [tool?]
never heard about them but i think i saw one
of their videos when i was clicking..
anyway- tool- and above that was a gun, a 45 i think
so the front was calm/ minamalist almost
but the back had a big picture of an old homeless bag lady/ sitting on the ground leaning against a brick wall/ with an ak 47 machine gun in her hand
and above the picture was the message
arm the homeless!
but the best part of that t-shirt was i used to wear
it every time i got picked for jury duty..
and i always was the first one dismissed!
to seize the day-ha!
If it’s not clear that anything can be done, maybe we should just step aside and stop trying to save the Democrats from themselves (or more accurately, the people who elect Democrats from the Democrats they elect).
In other news, I’m supposed to own a reptile, but I haz kittehs instead.

– Ernst, I’m not by nature a pessimist, exactly the opposite in fact. What leads me to think that is a simple understanding of the way investments work in the real world.
– In general, countries compete for investment money, and you do whatever you can to attract said cash flow. How exactly does one expect to instill trust in investors when everything your government does shows animosity to the source. What mechanisms can you use to counteract that policy? I honestly don’t know. This administration seems to have a death wish, and there’s no doubt the Progressives absolutely do. They’re like children, trying to operate with playground rules in a grown up world.
This administration seems to have a death wish, and there’s no doubt the Progressives absolutely do.
Agreed. We should grant them their wish.
They’re like children, trying to operate with playground rules in a grown up world.
That’s because they think they’re the playground monitors.
I’d like to amend this generally accurate picture Ernst, to say “that they think that what is in the best interests of the political class [can be made to appear] is in the best interest of the American people [in times which are either good, or not so bad that the American people begin to pay closer attention to what’s going on in Washington].
Which latter condition (the very bad one that makes citizens sit up and notice), I believe, has taken hold today and therefore necessarily somewhat alters the formerly plausible standard mode of operation in the Capital City, though this change of circumstance is slow to dawn on the political creatures themselves: for want of better understanding of their own situation; for a most definite lack of understanding of the views of the people themselves; for lack of an understanding of the deep meaning of politics itself, which shallow understanding they do possess they find sufficient to cope or with which they can manage to cope in relatively undemanding times and which by habit have learned to lean on when it cannot be appropriate; for lack of imagination to foresee their own newly examined position relative to the demands and needs of the people, demands and needs they still have not come to grips with.
“…the demands and needs of the people, demands and needs they still have not come to grips with.”
– Well the blinders go up when those “demands” start to focus on “less” of everything.
– Our founding fathers warned us about this extensively. Maybe this is one of those moments in history when we’re going to have to make some sacrifices and fight for our country and freedoms, because its not going to just to away. Our enemies, those that seek to either turn the US into a Eurotrash Socialism, or others that just want to bring us low, are not going to go quietly, or relent.
So when the Republicans passed these tax cuts in the first place, why did they make them expire at the end of 2010?
(I now prepare to play the “because the Democrats forced them” drinking game. Any reason beyond that?)

Totally off topic, for which I apologize and crave the indulgence of you all. I’ve got a small concern that might be of interest to the classically liberal crowd around here, and I thought some opinionated folk might care to opine.
I pick up my oldest from elementary school (K-5). Every afternoon for the last two weeks, I’ve observed the current rotation of crossing guards (5th graders) enforcing a “no running on the sidewalk!” rule by taking down the names of
runnersoffenders in a notebook. I finally decided I had seen enough of it this afternoon and left a note with thejunior statist aparatchikyoung lady with the notepad on my particular corner.(Or something like that). The enforcement, if not the rule is something new since December. I don’t necessarily object to the rationale –last winter we had 18 inches of snow fall over Christmas and freezing rain on top of that over New Year’s, so the sidwalks were solid ice from after Christmas vacation until mid-March. But I don’t like how the school is going about gaining compliance. Anybody have any thoughts?
I fought a school over something similar. In the morning, the teacher would assign one of her “favorites” to take names of any kids (1st grade class room) that got too loud before the morning bell had rung. 1st grader on 1st grader. It was, to my ear, not a noisy room at all and seemed a bit authoritarian – sit quietly and no talking before the bell had even rung or no recess for you.
The response I received was “you don’t expect me to handle 20 1st graders by myself do you?” My response was yes, I do unless you want to share a portion of your salary with the kids. She wasn’t amused. I went to the principal with the response and she explained that the teacher needed a para-pro. I explained that my 1st grade teacher handled 33 kids with no assistance and is that the parapro’s job description, name taker? No change, so I pulled my kid out and homeschooled him for the remainder of that year. Got a call from the school board asking where my kid was and said that I had voted with my feet that their methods were bullshit. The teacher and admin were gone the next year (where I don’t know).
The teachers have no cause/effect relational thinking to realize that asking kids to take names enforces anything other than to make it easier on the teacher to have someone else help with their “thankless” tasks. That it is part of the job description doesn’t enter into their thinking or that it reinforces der fuehrer’s kindergarten training.
The change in methodology is probably a response to some parent complaining that their kid wasn’t running and instead of having a talk with Jimmy, the school took the easy way out and asked that all offenders be ticketed. All part of that zero tolerance training that relieves them from doing burdensome things like actually checking the facts out for themselves and punishing according to the crime. Critical thinking isn’t in the job description in either application or applied methods.
Should mean critical thinking isn’t in the job description for teaching it to students or for applied methods in classroom management. Don’t want to be confusing.
Good Allah. I don’t have a lot of hair left, but crap like that would make me pull out my remaining few.
Heard from Bmoe…
I am mostly online on a mobile these days and have been having problems with word press. Long story but I am fine and will have it all sorted out soon I hope.
Whew… now to get his hairy ass back to posting. ;)
What set me off today (mostly I’ve been bemused by it) was when a kid who’s probably a 1st, maybe a smallish 2nd grader, didn’t want to give her his name) –not sure what he said to her, but she, in her best gr’up voice replied “yes, actually, it is my business.” That did it for me.
The other thing that’s funny is that it’s an all-girls crossing guard “unit” this month. That’s never happened before. I guess the theory is the girls are going to be less likely to abuse there authority and bully the littler kids. Yeah right.
That is ass backwards. Girls are all little hitlers. Why do they marry so many shit for brains and metro sexual types? To CHANGE them. The ugly flip side of “when did you quit beating your wife” is “why she keeps going back.”
I’ll be over in the corner waiting on the wymyn’s studies types to claw out my eyes now.
“why does she keep going back.”
Geez. I need a drink or several. BBL, I’m going to the mall! Shoes and drinks. Eleventy!
Eat Shim? It was the run-away chicken.
That chicken is one cheesy theme song away from being a ’70’s movie.
With boys you get “hey dummy! stop running!” and no names in the notebook. With girls you get names in the notebook. Girls are better at following directions that way.
Check out the headline and pic at Drudge. Priceless.

Obama’sClintons presser:“Both sides are going to have to eat some things they don’t like,” Clinton told reporters about the tax deal. “We don’t want to slip back into a recession. We’ve got to keep this thing going and accelerate its pace. I think this is the best available option.”
Clinton gave the package his full-throated endorsement, even while noting that he opposes the extension of upper-income tax cuts — though he himself will benefit from it. (Why do Democrats hate themselves so.)
– The pic shows the Golden Erkle retreating from the room. No doubt one of his advisors was panicky that the Pres would look “less than” standing next to Clinton with his typical forceful delivery.
– Too funny.
– I guess they thought they better bring in the Master to show the kid how it’s done.
did we notice this? I don’t remember anyone telling me this. That’s not surprising cause nobody tells me anything. But still.
As far as I am concerned this is simply evidence that we’ve been living under a continuous Clinton presidency since 1993.
A second and similar amendment also failed, 44-53.
That one should be disturbing. There are still too many statists willing to be out in the open.

Here is a video of what BBH mentioned above. As DrewM over at Ace’s said, it’s clear that the man is just not up to the job. “I’ve been keeping the first lady waiting for a half hour so I’m taking off. Gibbs will call last question.” Unreal.
Watch this video and try to keep your jaw off of the floor. I couldn’t.
Big D – he is a smal small man, getting smaller by the day. the optics from that will not go away anytime son.

I especially liked the “can’t keep the first lady waiting” part. He’s not even the President when Bill Clinton’s not in the building.

– The MFM is trying mightily to ignore the contrast that occured today. One talking head had it wrong when he said “Long time since we’ve seen two presidents in the same room”.

– Gawd we are so fucked.
Seriously, how many of us have had to make the call: Honey, I got tied up at the last minute at work. I’ll be there as soon as I can.
He’s the FUCKING PRESIDENT for crying out loud. She can’t wait for more than 30 fucking minutes to stuff her maw? Well, pardon me all to hell.
– I gotta believe he’s wearing one of those Secret Service ear pieces, and one of his minions saw the onstage contrast and told him to get the fuck out of dodge, just saying something about the dinner as an excuse.
mr. jeff you were right on this tax thing.
clintons definitely have the birth cert..

sumthing weird going down. gibbs with a press release in the oral office
I was running around this afternoon doing a bunch of errands before the twins arrived for Weekend at Grandparents (they are downstairs watching Home Alone II for the umpteenth time) and heard the audio of Billy Jeff on Hewitt’s show.
Amazingly, I was able to keep my car on the road.
Billy has wanted back in the White House so bad for so long, and here The One just hands over the press conference to him? And Billy was just reveling in giving his opinion on just about everything.
Egads.

when is the first little obama monkey going to quit and write a book like that Paul O’Neill piece of shit
I too was stunned to see “Big Dawg” Billy Jeff, the original black President, addressing the press on the state of the economy and the latest tax deal. I especially found it breathtaking that addressing the fourth estate regarding the business of the nation, including the critical matter of extending the existing tax rates, and selling the “compromise” he supposedly struck with the gangsta-terrorist Rethug! hostage takers to accomplish, all had to take a back seat to M’chelle and the White House Christmas shindig.
Priorities, dontcha know…And, well, the arms, man!; he’s not going to cross the one person that the secret service won’t save his woosie ass from. And as far as the press goes? Well, I guess he figured it would be business as usual, and no matter what he said or did, all that would make it into copy was the official version according to The Narrative™
Anyway, all snark aside, I was struck by the notion that this was all anyone shoud expect; it’s what he’s done his whole life. Recall, during the campaign one of his colleagues from the Harvard Law Review noted how he was happy to leave all the real work to others, and just take credit for being in charge; a fact that might have recieved more play if the MFM had, you know, actually vetted the guy like they were supposed to instead of sending 80% of the press corps to Wasilla to dig dirt on you-know-who.
So it’s really not so surprising; just the same as it ever was…
Back from the mall.
Remember this?
Ending weeks of speculation and rumors, President-Elect Barack Obama today named Bill Clinton to join his incoming administration as President of the United States, where he will head the federal government’s executive branch.
“I am pleased that Bill Clinton has agreed to come out of retirement to head up this crucial post in my administration,” said Obama. “He brings a lifetime of previous executive experience as Governor of Arkansas and President of the United States, and has worked closely with most of the members of my Cabinet.”
Clinton said he was “excited and honored” by the appointment, and would work “day and night” to defeat all the key policy objectives proposed by Mr. Obama during the campaign.
Iowahawk nailed it in 2008.
The best line of the day was Michael Goldfarb’s twitter: “Finally, America has a black President again.”

– The reporter on the scene asked the lady how it all happened and she rolled her eye’s and said “How he got in my toilet, I’ll never know.”
– Groucho would have been proud.
I like pdbuttons too. The doggerel thread is/is going to be epic.
My problem is that with the left we a dealing with a large group of stone cold liars. Every word in every sentence is a calculated lie including every “and, “the”, “ummmm”, and “ahhh”. They are a house of mirrors.
Which is why I’m kinda hoping it passes and the repubs pull all the sweeteners out in the 112th. That is what the tea party newbies soon to ascend to the hill are saying that they want to do. What are the dems going to do? Demand that the drunken spendings continue?

Chiropractor’s Dream
bigD
A small man, with a small mind, doing small things with a mighty effort, with little result.
Misty Straction?
I’d suggest Melonie Neuma, or maybe Lisa B. Puller in honor of the general.
Abbondanza Annie?
Curvacious Cathy?
Pnuematic Nellie?
Voluptuous Violet?
Or should we just plain call her Darlin’? And I wonder if she’s a civilian or a, erm, movie star?
She has kind of a European look…
