That people are sick of him kissing the GOPs ass!

I bet next time the idea of caving to the GOP will not sound like such a good idea.

1. Yeah because he didn't have this opportunity before...
I think McConnell saying "Our number one priority is to get rid of Barak Obama" might have given him a clue that he was dancing with the devil. Frankly I can't fathom how anyone with that level of intelligence can be so blind. Unless.... he's not.

2. Nah. he got away with it again, so what's to make him think
the next time will be any different?

The only thing that will change his behavior is for it NOT to succeed.

Besides, I don't think he really sees it as a problem. So what if some of the little people on the left are pissed off? He and his got what they wanted, so he's basically telling us to STFU.


What a guy! :sarcasm:

Look at this last Tax cut deal can't be changed, Biden tells House Democrats

From the article:
"So far as the administration is concerned, it's take it or leave it," Rep. Peter DeFazio (D-Ore.), one of the most vocal critics of the tax deal, told The Hill after the meeting. "I would say was pretty specific about that."

--snip--

"It's fair to say that he said, 'We've negotiated with the Republicans, but we're not going to negotiate with the Democrats," Rep. Anthony Weiner (D-N.Y.) said in paraphrasing the vice president.

DeFazio is circulating a petition to force the Democratic caucus to vote next Tuesday on whether the current package should be brought to the floor or altered first. He needed 50 signatures to force that vote; as of Wednesday night, he said he'd gathered 51.

5. Dump the good stuff, to hell with the unemployed and the tax breaks
that will continue for the middle class. By gawd stick it to the repubs and throw the masses under the bus. 2 years is forever...if you have an income.
