In reply to the discussion: Obama Throws Boehner To The Wolves: "You Missed Your Opportunity"-&-“You get nothing” [View all]coalition_unwilling

We've got them on the mat now and the 10-count has begun. Time to finish the job in 2014 with Dem majorities in both House and Senate (and Rs destined for the dustbin of history).

If we do go over the fiscal "cliff" = revenue problem solved. How else can that be accomplished?

How is it unreasonable after Obama gave the GOP 95% of what they wanted and they still said no?
