1. Really? CNN: 'McConnell, R-Kentucky, insisted Obama is "clinging" to hope for a "massive tax hike."'
Edited on Tue Jul-26-11 09:01 PM by ClarkUSA
House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, D-California, accused Republicans of trying to "undermine government" and "destroy" vital programs; McConnell, R-Kentucky, insisted Obama is "clinging" to hope for a "massive tax hike."

Doesn't sound like anyone was capitulating, except Carville when he married Dick Cheney's former top aide.

James Carville knows nothing, obviously.

2. Well, he's right
Sad to say, but the Reid plan of all cuts, a Super Congress, and no revenue increase is indeed a white flag. It's everything that the 'Pugs originally wanted.

5. So tired of Carville's antics.
I remember when the Dems lost big (was it in 2004, I'm not sure), Carville was a commentator on CNN election night, and he put a trash can on his head.

There are good reasons why the Dems are doing what they're doing. Let's see how all of this turns out, shall we?

7. That is why they are running away. They wanted the debt to be an issue
during the 2012 election but the dems keep offering up Trillions of cuts.... so dems can run on fighting the debt in 2012. Why the GOP is running away.
