The world will implode if it's not done this minute. That treaty was signed in April, and it's only now that the WH is willing to even TALK to Kyl. He's been there for months, willing to talk, but nope, no joy. It's pretty to think that the Republicans are holding everything up, but that's not actually the case in this case. <br /><br />It is in others, though, definitely (and as you know, it makes me very happy that they have managed to stop BO's agenda as much as they have).<br /><br />Bush tax cuts are going to remain in place, of course. All of them. And you're right, the DREAM Act is not happening.<br /><br />Schoolyard bullying and taunting? oh dear, did you somehow miss Herr Pelosi striding through a group of protesters with an over-sized gavel waving in her hand and a giant, malignant grin spread across her face? That's the picture that lost so many dem seats, and now that she's back as minority leader, that's the picture that will lose them more in 2012. <br /><br />It's unfortunate that your petulant man-child is such an awful person and resoundingly-awful, truly-embarrassing president, but the bitter bipartisanship in Washington comes straight from the Oval. Ask any democrat.Fuzzy Slippershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13021615731454709413noreply@blogger.com
