For those of us who store information spacially the alarm bells are going off. Boehner and crew

claim the payroll tax cuts are too short in duration so they will not vote for them. This is after the democrats made a deal with GOP to extend the tax cuts for two months cause that is all they could get. I cannot model the GOP version of events and sit it in my brain.... Does not compute but the GOP is trying to force it. If Herman Cain pissed off women with his harrassment of women, Boehner will piss off those who who are more spacially oriented with his lie: often men.

just festering in my thoughts...they went off the deep end and lied a little too big this time. It defies the laws of physics. I'm hoping others who are spacially oriented like me (often men) will wake up due to this GOP big mistep. The Wall Street Journal thinks the GOP has gone off the deep end too.

They've had since September - when they opposed it tooth and nail - until now. They are such phoney-baloneys.

I'm not sure whether I store information "spacially" or not, but I have on occasion been called a "space cadet."

Even I, however, can smell a Big Rat.

Boner wants the farm and the young daughters with his deal for the one year extension because he knows he has the media to leverage for him. Dems said

-no, you can't because that is a way out of line pricetag for a compromise. We'll talk about this in a couple months. -

Then Boner blames the Dems for not taking a Year (because they were being blackmailed). And the media keeps making it sound like all of Congress are dreadlock deadlocks. Like the dems are equally as greedy fuckface asshole pigs as the Pugs are (some are but not near the full coverage of the pugsters).

Keep them honest, all you Anderson Coopers out there!

Eleven months until the election? More than enough time for the beast to kill itself.

Can you imagine what they are capable of in that length of time? The depths of poverty in the heat of summer in the city? Oh my, it could be very awful. There seems to be no way to control them, either. Like small 2 year old children, they are destroying their toys(the 99% and the world) in their destructive fit.
