ever wonder why the repukes quit talking about the deficit and unemplayment?here's why

http://www.fool.com/investing/general/2014/01/19/the-deficit-is-vanishing-america-isnt-as-broke-as.aspx

And if we look at the deficit in terms of GDP, we find that the 2013 deficit was just 3.6% of 2012 GDP. As of now, 2013 GDP numbers, though more impressive than the 2012 reading, aren't yet out. But the fact is that the deficit, in relative terms, is just one-third the size of the deficit in 2009. And it's nearly half the size of the deficit in calendar year 2012.

Also notable are higher taxes. Before 2013, dividends and capital gains were taxed at just 15%. Now, high-income earners may pay as much as 23.8%. This has an incredible effect on government revenue, as high-income earners who earn the majority of their income from investments paid tax rates that were nearly 40% higher than they paid the year prior. Suffice it to say that there are many unhappy hedge fund and private equity managers who are now paying 23.8% on their earnings, instead of a low 15% capital gains tax rate.

are dogs pack loyal enough to get revenge?

I ask because a photo thread i started got me wondering.

back story...when we lived near my wifes parents the neighbors had a MEAN rott who was katie the wonder terrier's nemises.One day that rott was terrorizing one of our cats and Katie went to the cats defense.....60 stitches later she came home from the vet.

Two weeks later Buddy Guy,who was a calm dog,caught that rott and shredded her.She spent a week at the hospital

Do dogs in a domesticated environment really remember and seek revenge?
