'Go F— Yourself!' - Fake Fiscal Cliff Drama

"House Speaker John Boehner couldn't hold back when he spotted Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid in the White House lobby last Friday.

It was only a few days before the nation would go over the fiscal cliff, no bipartisan agreement was in sight, and Reid had just publicly accused Boehner of running a "dictatorship" in the House and caring more about holding onto his gavel than striking a deal."*

Harry Reid, John Boehner, and President Obama had quite the dramatic interactions with each other over the fiscal cliff. But are they all just playing the rest of us for fools? What was really at play. Cenk Uygur breaks it down.

"Republicans are people who don't believe governments can work and get themselves elected to prove it"

Boner. No matter how much anyone tries to claim the contrary.

Obama just said I am NOT a dictator didn't Nixon say I am NOT a crook.

I viewed this movie because I got truly anxious about the economy and had little idea how to handle it. Cash money does not always mean anything anymore. And So I chose to do a little analysis and came across Goldiverse. Now i\'m so fortunate, I can certainly change my savings from cash to all the major currencies, to any precious metal at any time I want. The state can go and take a jump for all I care. Just Bing and yahoo it Goldiverse.

Selling of real estate and willing of real estate are very different. Whatever your sales tax is (prior to 3 yrs), does it even approach 45 to 55%?

The way it works here is that if you have lived in the house for 3yrs you can sell it tax free, else you pay moderate (by Euro standards) tax.

We really need to stop pronouncing "Boehner" as "Bay-nor" and start pronouncing it as "BOW-NER"

[forevertobeginning]

Total Boner. I love it.

Paul Krugman is most likely the most believable economist of his generation, basic Keynesian theory that has been proven again and again, not like Milton Friedman who has been proven wrong again and again...

[UniversalPotentate]

I read through your other responses because I thought you were a little strong. I didn't realize your puporse is just angry trolling.

You're a bitch. You're WRONG. Fuck off and don't talk to me again.

When will we wake up and burn the real criminals to the ground?
