    Huffpo is really angry at Obama.

    I thought Obama was winning this whole fiscal cliff deal. Predictions?

    Seeing liberals get mad at other liberals? Common

    Something you never see on Fox is them bashing Republicans. Don't want to mess up their daily script.

    Boehner gets a lot of shit from Republicans. HuffPo is attacking Obama from the left so I wouldn't give them too much credit.

    It is really strange that Obama is suddenly willing to negotiate on taxes on the last day. I guess Republicans know how to handle him.

    I'd rather watch cartoons. Just as fictional and more entertaining.

    Pretty much. That's why we are having this phony debate over tax increases that are too small to solve anything anyway.

    My Prediction, everyone's taxes go up tomorrow. Then with the next congress in session, a deal is reached--both sides say they "cut taxes". People like you will stay mad at Obama, people like Mofo will stay mad at Republicans, people like stripes will stay mad at everyone.

    Happy new year!

    Looks like they got a deal and may even vote tonight.

    Looks like they deal is to raise taxes on all the evil scum making more than 450k and kick the can down the road for virtually everything else.

    In 2 months we will have this debate all over again, except it will coincide with the debt ceiling instead of the fiscal cliff.

    so you are arguing taxes should be raised even more, since you say this raise is too small.

    i agree it's a phoney debate though, but you are part of the phoniness.
    99% of politicians on both sides agree on this tax plan.
    the ones against it aren't really against it, they just don't want to lose their job by another republican who's pretending to be a conservative during the next campaign just like they did
    the mantra "i wont raise taxed" is nonsense.
    if it was currently 1% they wouldn't vote to raise them, even tho they should.
    and if it was currently 99% they wouldn't vote to raise them(even tho they should be arguing to lower them), and they would pretend to be the conservatives hero protecting the good folks from the big bad liberals



    my analogy is arguing wether the stern show should be extended 34 minutes or 39 minutes, when neither fixes anything because its body of the show(taxcode) that sucks. and within the bill that extends the show 39 minutes, it adds 5 minutes of ads. rendering the argument even stupider

    the vortex is strong today. im saying if you want to solve our debt problems with tax increases you gotta raise taxes a hell of a lot more.

    as for your statement that 99% of politicians on both sides agree on this tax plan... you are literally pulling shit out of your ass. you seem to just have a thought and then it becomes fact to you. i think someone should study you in a lab.

    it was an exaggerated analogy to prove a point, that no matter how high taxes were, they would just repeat the slogan they wont raise taxes, [while not arguing to lower them either]. creating a liberal boogieman is not conservative.

    arguing for 34%, is not conservative.

    arguing for a progressive tax system that punishes success, is not conservative.

    arguing that anyone who can afford lobbyist, should pay much less tax than everyone else, is not conservative


    as to your point. no, you don't have to raise taxes more to solve the debt problem. you need to lower them.
    reasonable tax rates would grow business and the economy thus generating more revenue than if taxes were high.
    example. if taxes were 99% you wouldn't generate any revenue because everyone would go out of business.

    (oh noes, he used an analogy with 99% in it again. it must be a vortex!!!)
