G.O.P. Leaders in House Pull Tax Bill, Citing Lack of Votes[W: 414]

Re: G.O.P. Leaders in House Pull Tax Bill, Citing Lack of Votes

Boehner didn't screw the pooch by rejecting a ridiculous offer to prevent some fiscal cliff that was created by the Democrats.

He should have walked away weeks ago.

This is Obama's economy.

Yours right, it is Obamas economy but it is the republicans cliff that they insist on jumping off of.:peace
 
Re: G.O.P. Leaders in House Pull Tax Bill, Citing Lack of Votes

Absolutely right...Boehner should introduce a bill to lower the bottom three tax tiers, and keep the top two the same. Pass it send it to the senate, then tell both Obama a Reid to suck on that.

Nah!if the baggers keep holding bohner hostage to their ridged agenda,bohner should show some leadership,which he hasn't shown in the 21 years that he has been in the house and put Obamas FIRST plan to a vote for every member of the house.Guess how that would go?:peace

The cliff is a manufactured construct to force the Republicans to do something stupid. Raise taxes AT ALL during a down economy to combat massive Federal spending.

Its all just a bunch of BS. Raising taxes on the rich accomplishes nothing when Obama should be focusing on ways to incentivize our private sector.

But no, he would rather push this eat the rich nqrrative and play politics with peoples lives rather than focus on real and positive plans to improve the American economy.

How could you be OK with this ?

I didn't have you pegged as one of those left wing idiots who're for fleecing rich people because it's "fair".

In how many months before the One was elected were there monthly job losses greater than 700K per month?

It is the Marxist's economy. He and his enablers share in the blame.
 
Re: G.O.P. Leaders in House Pull Tax Bill, Citing Lack of Votes

Yes and the house Demo's will whine like babies should Obama budge at all. Honestly until the Demo Party servers it ties to the libtard progressives they will have these problems. They have done nothing for this country and never will.

Lol Obama has already budged and he shouldnt have. What the republicans need to understand is one they created this mess with trickle down economics. Two it is not the pooor that hurt this country it was a huge defence budget and tax cuts for people that did not need them. Three the alignment with the teabaggers who are nothing more than nitwit ideologs that do not know a damn thing about history. The only party that has driven this country into the groud is the one that contains a bunch of angry old white men.

:lamo Your posting is really little more than stereo typical Rachel Maddow blather...No basis in fact, steeped in far left ideology...You have the gall to label people you don't know as 'angry old white men', yet your own postings are dripping with hate.

I'll pray for you.

However, let me put it to you the other way Republicans lost the election, there was a choice for the Romney plan and Obama's. Obama's won period he is under no obligation to pass the robme plan!

So far your presence in this board has been nothing but trolling, and radical leftist talking points....Tell you what, if I want to hear anything you have to say from now on I can just tune to MSNBC, or XM Left on the radio. It's all the same BS.

Looks like it worked.:thumbs:

Good. glad you agree, we'll just raise taxes on about 2 percent then.


Its all just a bunch of BS. Raising taxes on the rich accomplishes nothing when Obama should be focusing on ways to incentivize our private sector.


Sure it does...it starts paying for the wars that were put on the national credit card.it also helps pay the bill for the prescription drug plan that helps some of us old birds.


But no, he would rather push this eat the rich nqrrative

Hhmm... “nqrrative” must be some kinda exotic spice eh?:mrgreen:

and play politics with peoples lives rather than focus on real and positive plans to improve the American economy.

Speaking of playing politics. What was the number of filibusters in the Senate this year?Also ,would you call a Senator that filibustered his own bill “playing politics“?


How could you be OK with this ?

Because it gets money into the treasury from those that can afford it the most.


I didn't have you pegged as one of those left wing idiots who're for fleecing rich people because it's "fair".

When all else fails resort to add homs eh?Kinda sad.:(

Your making progress...of sorts.In the olden days you called him the oneterm marxist's (with the small m)now you make it a Cap M,AND you dropped the oneterm. Who knows,if you hurry you might even be able to learn the definition of Marxist before his second term is over. Not likely though.:(
 
Re: G.O.P. Leaders in House Pull Tax Bill, Citing Lack of Votes

LMMFAO!!!

House Republicans revolted this evening and rejected Speaker John Boehner’s “Plan B” which would have extended the Bush tax cuts for everyone making $1 million or less, among other provisions. According to Boehner, he canceled a scheduled vote on his plan after it became clear he could not get enough support from Republicans for it to pass. The House is now in recess until after Christmas. <snip> BREAKING: Republicans Revolt, Reject Boehner's 'Plan B' | ThinkProgress

I am so confused... what do they want to see happen?

They took a pledge to not raise taxes, but if they do nothing... everybody's taxes will go up. Do they want everybody's taxes to increase????
 
Re: G.O.P. Leaders in House Pull Tax Bill, Citing Lack of Votes

This gives me hope. I am grateful that Boehner lost on his intended sell-out.

Now we have to find a way to defeat him. We need someone with conservative principles. We need someone who is articulate. Boehner is neither principled nor articulate.

This is a very good evening for America.

The tea party lost long ago, and now it's dragging the GOP down with it now...

I know the definition of Marxist.....POS.
 
Re: G.O.P. Leaders in House Pull Tax Bill, Citing Lack of Votes

The Republican party is infested with so many Rinos that cannot be trusted, starting with Boehner. They're having a hard time going down.

It would be great to never hear names like Boehner, McCain, Rubio, Jindal, Christie, LindseyGraham, etc., etc. again. They are people without a party, without a country.

What did Graham, Rubio, and Jindal do?
 
Re: G.O.P. Leaders in House Pull Tax Bill, Citing Lack of Votes

Counting the days until Boehner is no longer Speaker of the House...... 10.... 9.... 8....

Who would replace him?

Yes, Obama played a cynical game with the American people when he and Reid wrote the sequester...Obama knew all along that he would just force that through and blame it on Repubs....What a joke...On the other hand we are in rough shape as a party, and really don't have any good options.

We need to be more like demo's in one respect, pin the blame where it belongs, on Obama....

There was a report that Boehner and Obama were talking when Boehner told Obama that he had already put $800 Billion on the table, Obama replied with "I get that for free"....Obama was never serious. He wants the cliff...He is going to ruin this country...Congrats demo's.

Taken thing a bit outta context arnt ya om?

When Boehner asked Obama if they agree on a deal along the same lines as the one he walked away from during the 2011 talks, according to the paper,

BO retorted: “You missed your opportunity on that.” :peace

My point exactly...This isn't some coke deal Obama was making like he did when he was younger, it is with the economic well being of the country at stake....And he plays games? And liberals like you cheer it on....Good God....We are really screwed, if children like today's radical liberal progressive trash is in control.

You got it backwards. The deal was on the table LAST YEAR. Bohner is the one playing games.When was the last time you filled up your truck and went into pay for it, said i want last years fuel price instead of the posted price?That was a last years shot, bohner blew it up.BO also said that he is through negotiating with himself.I guess tanman didn't believe him.

Wow, that's nice revision....Surely you haven't forgotten that quickly...They had reached a deal for $500 Billion, (I think) when Obama returned the next morning and demanded $800 Billion....Now he is doubling that....What a douche.
