I'm not sure the country is going over the cliff, but DU sure as hell has.

131. Whew.

At least you let us all know how little you know about politics and how Washington works. Citing Bernie's vote is so clueless. Can you show me where Bernie says that this was a good idea?

So you wanna flame me because of Bernie's vote? Is the fact that you champion a bill that mitch mcconnel voted for mean that you support his ideas?

Now. As for the rest of your uninformed blather. Try reading any of the hundreds of articles and posts by progressive and even the moderately left that point out how the "cliff" was a shibboleth that meant nothing. If the idiot republicans in the house don't pass the bill, we will get a better one in the next week. There was not any chance of unemployment benefits being cut by Dems or a majority of the pubs. Try to keep up with what is going on if you want to comment.
