tweety & company were speculating that the rethugs in the house could submarine tax bill

hardball on m$nbc..... guests: richard wolffe & howard fineman

'republican votes in the house are eroding fast' according to these gents

and of course it's because the bill doesn't go far enough for these cretins...they want the tax cuts permanent and don't want to extend unemployment benefits.

now wouldn't that be something if the thugs killed the bill....

tweety speculated that part of it was not wanting Obama to have any kind of victory.....

1. Good, then it may end up helping the Dems ...

... cuz Goddess knows we haven't helped ourselves over the past several months. If this bill sinks, Dems can blame the GOP for shitcanning unemployment and bring it up as a stand alone bill. And the tax cuts can be brought up in a Repug congress after January and then they'll own them, entirely, and can answer for ass-kissing the top 2%.

2. Good. Let the tax cuts expire for everyone. nt

[DBoon]

3. and let the republicans go on record as raising taxes

[spanone]

4. it sure makes the political game more interesting

5. Frankly, if you're stuck in a district with a Rethug congresscritter

The best thing you can do is send them a reich-wing email opposing this deal. However it gets killed, whether from Repukes who want to overreach, or Democratic Representatives who stand on principle, it's fine by me.
