5. Lots of REALLY piossed off editorial cartoonists...reflecting what the people are thinking.
Wonder if anyone in the White House sees these, and if so, do they comprehend what they mean.

Interesting that the "doormat" image is so common..

I am taking down the Presidential portrait I have on the wall above my desk and the framed door hanger from the campaign. I did have hope.....not any more.

17. Do they have the internets @ the White House??..
"The single most important thing we want to achieve is for President Obama to be a one-term president."-- Senate minority leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY)

18. Who knows what Obama is seeing - it is a very insular environment.
I know Clinton didn't have a PC (I had a friend on the white house help desk at that time), but I have no idea what Obama's set up is. You can be sure, internet or not, that he knows he has a fight against Pelosi and other dems on this "deal" of his.

He probably spends all his time watching Fox News and dreaming up ways of making Glenn Beck and Sarah Palin like him.

and should I simply take it at face value?

Or is there a cautionary subtext there of Bu$h Pere, "Read my lips", and the resulting incumbent party failure in the next election?

48. Another backroom deal by the guy who said he'd 'change politics' in Washington

I guess he meant he'd change sides IN Washington - thought he was talking about folks boiling all the hope out of him... when in fact he's gone and done that very thing to US

So, what's going to be his third act? I can only imagine...

68. You don't understand the connection? The cuts cause a significant reduction in revenue
the Government will look for cuts to make up for the lost revenue in areas that it deems "non-essential", like Social Security. The GOP goal is to "shrink Government until it drowns in a bath tub" and it can be replaced by a Fascist feudal system of owners and wage slave consumers.

67. Yep, that's a repug contribution
Scrooge would actually be cheering because he would be getting the cut while Cratchit and all the poor get a RAISE in their taxes (those making under 20k a year will get a tax INCREASE under the Obama/ repug plan).
