(24,544 posts)Hair on fire threads every 14 damn seconds. Constant screaming about everything, facts be damned. Folks who just absolutely HAVE to post threads "reminding" all of us (as if we are ever, EVER given the opportunity to forget) how much they dislike/distrust this president even as negotiations were still happening.
It's a sad situation but I knew 2 things would happen re: the fiscal cliff: 1) no matter WHAT the president did, GD would scream about it. 2) the main people that would be the most up in arms would be the denizens of GD and the Republicans -- oh, what strange bedfellows! And damn if I wasn't right on both counts.
It's strange that, for the amount of interest in politics on this board, how many don't seem to understand how they work.
Kicking and recing too
