We keep biting our nose off to spite our face! What a way to run the country.

So, keep blocking any energy relief. Now they are predicting $4/gallon by late Spring. Makes sense, doesn't it?

Just goes to show the flawed judgement in the Newt camp if you ask me.

Given all the alphabet soup agencies out there trying to get their licks in on anyone showing any signs of economic life, we're just dead men walking!

When he had the chance to put his words into action, he fell flat on his face. Romney may, or may not, have seen the light. Time will tell. Newt has too many character flaws (keeping his word is one), while Romney tries to do the right thing even though he's been caught up sometimes with socialist schemes (Obamacare).

Maybe we need the EPA to get involved!

In this case you have huge monetary costs and a lack of confidence in government to enforce the law all because those in charge "feel" a kindred spirit with the undisciplined crowd.

Didn't anyone see this coming weeks ago? Tue, 20 Dec 2011 17:16:11 +0000 http://biggovernment.com/publius/2011/12/20/two-month-payroll-tax-holiday-cannot-be-implemented-properly/#IDComment242751862 http://biggovernment.com/publius/2011/12/20/two-month-payroll-tax-holiday-cannot-be-implemented-properly/#IDComment242746018 What should've been a slam dunk for conservatives has now become a disaster. Now, because Mr. Boehner has dug in his heels at a most inopportune time by insisting that the payroll tax reduction be permanent, it now looks like once again the Republicans have been backed into a corner and they are damned if they do and damned if they don't. Isn't there anyone that has taken Strategy 101? Gotta hand it to the Dems though - they know how to play hardball when it counts!

Track who's been raking it in over this whole boondoggle. Doesn't make much difference which party, all of em leave a heck of lot richer than when they come in. And all on a $135,000/yr job? Now that's a trend we can really track, but do NOTHING about.

If she gets in, then she gets mired in the mud with rest of the group! At least now she can be a foil!

However, if somehow the computer programming goes wild, who knows? Nobody wants to see bloodshed, but, given the complete irresponsibility of those "in charge", it may happen.

This may be the final hurrah before everything tanks. Just sayin'.

Us folks on the East side of Oregon seem to be mostly free of the afliction - we just don't have the numbers to counter the lefties!
