Drastically higher spending; extension of tax cuts for the elite; ending decades long ban on exporting US crude oil.

Both parties are happier than pigs in shit.

What a compromise! :lol:

Yeah, are you going to vote your Congressmen out? :coffee: Not saying you don't try.

Racehorses and NASCAR racetracks, school teachers and college students, green energy companies and the big oil giants all made out well in the deal, reached overnight after weeks of negotiations. The chief loser, meanwhile, is the federal deficit, which grows by hundreds of billions of dollars under the terms of the tax deal.

Mr. Obama gloated over the agreement, saying he got nearly everything he wanted and gave up very little, only ceding ground in allowing two Obamacare taxes to be postponed and agreeing to lift the decades-old ban on exporting crude oil.

I can't believe people thought it would be different with Ryan as speaker vs. Boner.

Vote them all out.

House Speaker Paul Ryan (R-Wis.) heralded the measure as a win, telling reporters Wednesday that with the budget deal, Congress is “stopping the IRS from suppressing civic participation in 501(c)(4) organizations.”
Civic participation! :rofl:

This Congress and administration are in desperate need of a 3rd grade math teacher. :ohno:

How can one party look at massive spending hikes as a win, the other looks at extending tax breaks as a win, and not understand that you're spending more money that you don't have? And that everything they did is collectively "for the good of the country"?

We might as well give up - the Chinese will own every piece of what was once America once they call in our debt.

And now he's a bearded POS. Where did that scruffiness come from?

I wonder how many Congressfolk will have the balls to vote no on this atrocity. And that includes the womyn.

Exhibit A while Trump is leading the polls for the Conk primary. And this lunacy out of DC might just cement it for him.

What - is Trump just going to declare bankruptcy?

There's nothing in Trump's history that would indicate that he has any sort of fiscal ability to balance a budget orchid work with a body that he just can not insult and fire

Couple a political party in that condition with a dozen candidates that can't come within a rifle shot of the poll numbers of a professional buffoon and it won't be long till you're choking the pope to a picture of President Clinton. :thumb:

Yup. Actually, I was trying to count Hillary's orifices, but I came up a few short. Either that, or you aren't working hard enough.
