Needed: Linux Banking Software
Last weekend my credit union (I won't mention their name in order to avoid embarrassing them) did a computer conversion. Conversion is their word—they didn't say upgrade. They replaced their aging Data General system with a Windows 95 system. You can guess the kind—big video displays, stereo speakers on the display, keyboard in a drawer and, amazing as it seems, a mouse.
This isn't a little credit union—they have multiple offices, their own set of ATMs and, at my local branch, six teller windows. What was the first thing that made the conversion obvious? It was the long line—not something I expected, because it's usually not there. I talked to a teller, who thought the line was her fault because she wasn't used to the new system. She was wrong.
I watched as she did my transaction, as I have watched tellers at this credit union for over 10 years. (I even witnessed the conversion to the Data General system.) What I saw this time was a new way of doing transaction processing. Instead of approximately 30 keystrokes to do my transaction (deposit three checks with cash back), I saw as many keystrokes interspersed with about half a dozen mouse operations.
I told her it was impossible to do the job quickly when a mouse is involved, pointing out how easily a selection mistake can be made. I even told her I had been thinking about applications such as a credit union transaction-processing system and how an operating system called Linux was a better platform for building such a system. She asked me to let her know when I had this new system available for use.
Now, I'm doing my job as a Linux evangelist, and Linux Journal is doing its job to show people that some businesses have found the right use for Linux. What's missing is someone to get all the necessary applications together.
I expect it is possible to write a well designed transaction-processing system on MS Windows, but it certainly would leave out all of that wonderful drag-and-drop stuff. In a past life as a systems design specialist, I was the guy who had to evaluate the user's requirements and come up with the proper solution. Asking a bank teller to use a mouse when a typical transaction involves entering an account number, some check numbers and some dollar amounts (and nothing else) does not make sense. Doing so means you must build a system which includes the overhead of a mouse-oriented graphical operating system—overhead that is just not necessary in this case.
If this same system was built with Linux, the hardware and software costs would be reduced, as well as the programming effort. And, bottom line—we would have Linux out there solving yet another problem.
If any of this strikes home, you should take a look at the discussion groups on the Linux Journal web page (http://www.linuxjournal.com/). We put them there to encourage the community to get talking and get programming on the applications that will make Linux the best solution for a variety of problems. Oh, and if you already have a Linux-based credit union package, let me know—there's this credit union in Seattle that could use your help.
On a totally different subject, there have been some changes at LJ. Margie told you about the subscription outsourcing fiasco last month. With subscription processing returned to our office and Linux systems, Ellen Dahl has returned to handle your subscriptions (firstname.lastname@example.com).
Another change is that Jennifer Davies has joined the LJ staff as my assistant. We expect the combination of her Masters in Library Science and her winning personality will make her the right addition to the team.
Finally, almost four years ago, Lydia Kinata applied for a job with us doing layout. We didn't have an opening in layout at that time, so Lydia was hired on in Order Processing and since then has done almost every other job available in the company, including customer service, products development, A/R, A/P, payroll and office management. She has handled all of these jobs efficiently and well. A current opening in layout will give her the opportunity to work in her area of expertise. Beginning with the March issue, Lydia will be our new Layout Artist.

With all the industry talk about the benefits of Linux on Power and all the performance advantages offered by its open architecture, you may be considering a move in that direction. If you are thinking about analytics, big data and cloud computing, you would be right to evaluate Power. The idea of using commodity x86 hardware and replacing it every three years is an outdated cost model. It doesn't consider the total cost of ownership, and it doesn't consider the advantage of real processing power, high-availability and multithreading like a demon.
This ebook takes a look at some of the practical applications of the Linux on Power platform and ways you might bring all the performance power of this open architecture to bear for your organization. There are no smoke and mirrors here—just hard, cold, empirical evidence provided by independent sources. I also consider some innovative ways Linux on Power will be used in the future.Get the Guide

Hi there this time last year our man ( my husband and my two girls dad) died A my 11 year old has not spoken to many people about the whole process, and i feel she is getting depressed???
Whenever i want to go out or have been invted out anywhere of late she has been crying and complaining. when we are together i ask if she wants to play a game but shes on the computer as much as she can be. im allowing for "the so called preteen stage"and that she might be premenstral, but im really scared i will lose her.. help please
I would have to know more about the situation, but it sounds like your daughter could really benefit from grief counseling. Death is a very hard thing for someone her age to deal with, especially the death of her father. The computer could be beneficial, but it should be something you are monitoring. She is only 11. Are you checking up to see what she is doing on the computer, who she is chatting with, emailing, ect. I personally think that an 11 year old girl who is dealing with the death of her father should probably be closely monitored when it comes to the internet.

DH said he was hungry for hamburger steak with onions and this one looked good. I did make a couple of changes. I added a little worchestershire sauce, cajun seasoning and seasoned italian bread crumbs to the meat and made 3 good sized patties. I used about 3 tbsp of butter to saute the onions which were sprinkled with cajun seasoning. Once they were soft I simply removed them and set aside and then added a couple of tbsp more of butter and fried the patiies for 8 minutes on each side. I then removed them and added a few tbsp of flour to pan and made a light brown roux. I then added the patties, onions, 2 cups of brown gravy (I used a dry mix) and another cup of water to the roux mixture. I covered the pan and brought the gravy to a simmer and cooked for another 15 minutes. DH baked a potato and we split it in half and served the hamburger patty with the onions on top of the potato. Simple, quick and delicious.
Yummy! MY DH came back for seconds and thirds! I will make this often for him. I probably will have to make a double recipe next time. Delicious! Thanks, Bergy!
So easy and so good! I made this for my husband and his meat loving friends. Everyone had double helpings and raved about how yummy this was. Thanks Bergy!

Few of the safeguards granted to individuals in the United States under the Bill of Rights are more vociferously defended than the Fourth Amendment guaranteeing protection against unreasonable searches and seizures. This is especially the case where the entry of private residences is concerned.
Sometimes, people run when they see you coming. May you chase them? If you do, does that amount to a "show of authority" constituting a detention, requiring reasonable suspicion?
Is it OK under the Fourth Amendment to turn a traffic stop into a criminal investigation? Of course it is, provided the justification for the additional investigation is developed during the reasonable duration of the traffic stop—not after.
In a series of cases, the court has upheld searches and seizures made by officers who were mistaken in their understanding of the facts they confronted, or as to the law to be applied.
A defendant cannot suppress evidence if he cannot show that his own legitimate rights were violated in the way it was obtained.
Ever since the U.S. Supreme Court made the Fourth Amendment exclusionary rule binding on the states in the 1961 decision in Mapp v. Ohio, thousands of published decisions from state and federal courts have applied the exclusionary rule to thousands of searches and seizures. It's no wonder the 50-year tidal wave of exclusionary decisions has left confusion and misunderstanding in its wake. Here are five areas of the law that seem to suffer the most in translation.
Your biggest fear in a dog shooting lawsuit is punitive damages. While compensatory damages are likely to be covered by your employer, punitive damages are probably coming out of your pocket.
Many people who use the term "stop and frisk" fail to realize that there actually is no such concept in the law, and that the phrase "stop and frisk" couples two constitutionally distinct activities that do not necessarily coincide. This misunderstanding is easily traced to the coincidence in Terry v. Ohio.
Private residences enjoy the highest levels of Fourth Amendment protection against governmental intrusion. Here are the 10 most common ways to get inside a home without violating the Fourth Amendment.
Some search-and-seizure rules are not very clear, and state and local federal courts might apply them differently. How can you be expected to pick and choose the right rule on an issue for which there doesn't seem to be just one "right" rule?
What if an object only comes into plain view after an officer shines a flashlight or spotlight into an area, or looks through binoculars? Does this use of sense-enhancing devices make a difference in the Fourth Amendment calculation of reasonableness?
If you aren't speaking and behaving at all times in public the way you want to appear when you're uploaded on YouTube, you could have some unpleasant surprises in store.
Under what circumstances would the Fourth Amendment allow routine collection of DNA samples upon arrest and booking? A recent Supreme Court decision addressed this issue.

Dear all,
I love to use csv2post plugin, but since there is a plugin that updates 8.0.0 makes me difficult to import data csv. Anyone can help?
Thanks in advance & b'regards,
Dear all,
I love to use csv2post plugin, but since there is a plugin that updates 8.0.0 makes me difficult to import data csv. Anyone can help?
Thanks in advance & b'regards,
The new version has many core changes that require existing campaigns to be migrated properly. This does not happen automatically due to the nature of the plugin and a certain change that makes it more complicated in certain blogs.
If you have updated version 7 with version 8 on a live blog before testing then any posts already created using CSV 2 POST will no longer be managed by the plugin. That can be changed but the tool to do it is not ready. Most users do not update an autoblogging plugin once the campaign is running, to avoid upsetting an ongoing project. So we're getting away with this so far.
If your situation is that your .csv file used to work with version 7 or before but no longer works with version 8 it will be due to headers. Version 8 focuses on running more efficiently in terms of PHP and requires the .csv file to have MySQL ready headers. It makes the code easier because we do not need to manage different versions of headers i.e. complex headers need to be simplified for use in the database which does not accept complex headers. That simply means no characters or spaces in your headers. Simplifying them makes them suitable to use in MySQL table names and makes the relationship between .csv file and database table easier.
If your still not sure and stuck please email firstname.lastname@example.com who is the author of the plugin. He has endless time for his plugin users.
If you go to the developers page of any plugin you will find older versions...
Here is a link for 7.0.5 which is before the re-development...
Version 8 was released since this comment. Please use that before using 7.0.5 as a couple of new users have done after seeing this post.
I recommend searching "CSV 2 POST" in your WP admin or downloading here...

Skip to comments.The GOP Political Establishment Fiscal Cliff Sellout
Posted on 01/07/2013 8:36:44 AM PST by IbJensen
Apparently Republican career politicians inside the Beltway have a collective death wish. Faced with what they believed to be political impasse, they opted to completely abandon their conservative base and give their full support to the abhorrent and fiscally reckless policies of Barack Obama and the Democrats. Of course Republicans would argue that since Obama won reelection in November, they must acquiesce to his uncontested leadership. Sadly, they give no thought to the possibility that perhaps it is their constant inexcusable capitulation to the liberal establishment which has, more than any other factor, empowered the left as the dominant political force in Washington.
The grim reality of the nations current financial debacle is that each and every year the government spends in excess of a trillion dollars more than it can afford. And while deficits have been a fact of life since the nations founding, the current levels are unsustainable, and portend an eventual economic implosion if the situation is not shortly corrected. But rather than addressing the real needs of the nation, and weighing them against its inability to continue operating on the current basis, liberal politicians see an opportunity to bolster their dominance in Washington by promising even larger handouts to favored constituencies.
Such reprehensible behavior by Democrats reveals a complete abandonment of their constitutional responsibilities, and should result in thorough censure from the right. To the ongoing shock and dismay of the conservative grassroots, nobody in the Republican leadership appears willing to carry that torch. Hence, liberals continue their devastation of the nations finances with total impunity for their corrupt actions. In fact they publicly laud themselves as the saviors of Middle America while they systematically plunder it.
Such blatant and shameless liberal propagandizing, makes it difficult to comprehend the actuality of the fiscal cliff situation. Yet for that very reason, the present degree of distortion and misrepresentation needs to be addressed by recalling the original premise of this whole debate, and holding to account everyone on both sides of the aisle who have allowed it to be so flagrantly distorted.
Throughout 2009 and 2010, as Americans grew increasingly concerned with the profligate squandering of the nations resources by the Obama Administration, the people demanded that his reins be tightened before he was able to completely bankrupt the country. In 2011, with the nation approaching its $14.3 trillion debt limit, mechanisms were ostensibly put in place to ensure that the criminally irresponsible spending spree would be brought into line. The imaginary fix to which Republicans agreed mandated federal spending cuts in exchange for Republican relaxation of the debt limit. This was the essence of naive GOP expectations for good faith Democrat reciprocation when Republicans caved on that occasion.
Now, with the arrival of that deadline, congressional Republicans are amazed to find themselves once again on the defensive, facing an intransigent Obama White House and blind partisanship in the Democrat controlled Senate. Instead of sincerely addressing the raging excesses of government spending, Obama continually upped the ante, imposing tax hikes that will punish the so-called rich (his most disfavored constituency) while bolstering his redistributionist schemes for those who worship at the altar of the state.
In his latest exhibition of brazen fraud, Obama advances a statist ploy as his fix, while challenging his critics to do the math. However, even a cursory examination of the numbers inarguably proves that he and his cabal of political supporters are in no way interested in factual accounting. The advancement of their anti-capitalist agenda is simply too important to be bothered with the inconveniences of reality.
According to the Congressional Budget Office, the bogusly named American Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012 contains $600 billion in tax increases, while conceding a mere $15 billion in cuts. Even if these figures were genuine, they would represent a fiscal atrocity. Yet even the occasional mention of reducing expenditures is once again only a cruel mirage. Liberals regularly cut their financial outlays by initially proposing deliberately inflated numbers, and then claiming to do some token trimming of those amounts.
With deficits projected to exceed four trillion dollars in the next ten years (a number that will be vastly exceeded), absolutely no effort to reduce the depredation of Americas pocketbooks will be attempted. In short, from both sides of the aisle, Washington disclosed an intention to continue its rapacious spending, with no end in sight.
Not surprisingly, House and Senate Democrats jubilantly supported Obamas sinister plan, exhibiting callous indifference to the collateral damage it inflicts on our once-great nation. Just as abhorrently however, the Republican acquiescence and compliance that ultimately made it a reality constitutes a wholesale betrayal of the American people. The seditious strategy of the Obama Administration and its leftist collaborators is based on the perpetual expansion of the government and a relentless encroachment on the private citizenry. Yet Republicans abetted this effort. No longer is either side of the political aisle concerned with steering the nation away from the true fiscal pitfall that it faces on account of its inexorable lurch into socialism.
Many among the conservative punditry claim that Obama will enjoy a significant political windfall from this debacle since the Republicans, by abandoning their core principle of opposing tax increases, are once again alienating their conservative base. However, to any who have observed flailing attempts by the philosophically bankrupt GOP Establishment to posture and pander its way into a position of leadership, this latest treachery comes as no surprise. With the exception of a few conservative stalwarts in its midst (many of whom Speaker Boehner vindictively purged from leading positions) the core of the Republican Party inside Washington is made up of morally and ethically rudderless political players.
Real conservatism has too often been squandered, even after such significant grassroots victories as the 2010 mid-term elections, because its key players were persuaded to align themselves with those they believed kindred in the GOP. In the wake of the fiscal cliff fiasco, and the needless and cowardly Republican acquiescence to Barack Obama, it has become painfully clear that conservatism must be unabashedly established and advanced as its own force for societal change if it is ever again to be taken seriously in the political world.
The primary stronghold of liberalism lies within the modern Republican Party. Until it is dismantled, attempting to turn the tide on the leftist onslaught will prove an exercise in futility.
They have to truly fight to save the nation, not continue 'reaching across the aisle' to grope at the left. Any groping of these sycophantic morons is beyond disgusting. Rather it's belly-wrenching puking to even consider bi-partisanship! It should be removed from their vocabulary and the realization sink in that they're dealing with satan's disciples and their constituent's bitter enemies.
Take votes away from the GOP.
Americans want big government and don't want to cut spending. If you don't believe me, pick out the most conservative area you can think of and see what happens when you propose cutting some program that would affect them. They, and their representatives, will howl as loudly as any liberal would about losing their pork.
Another lie, all the tax rates were going up if this wasnt passed (or plan B) as the two year extension ended.
In the case of this latest deal it wasnt just O who painted Bohner in a corner.
The we dont want nuthin passed into law R caucus in the House joined Dems in rejecting plan B, and that plan would would have keep even more of the taxes from going up than the final bill without the added spending.
It didnt take a rocket scientist to figure out that Bohner would not block partial tax cut extensions from being passed into law to keep most voters from getting a income tax increase.
I was posting here in November he would not take the blame for all those taxes going up, and I noticed no one challenged him to be Speaker themselves. Once they killed plan B Bohner said he will put a Senate passed extension up for a vote and he did.
The FC deal was excellent achievement. Without it, ALL TAX BRACKETS would have lost Bush tax cuts.
When democraps own the WH & Senate, and GOP has a mere 12 member advantage in House, to think that GOP could over power the democraps and get everything they wanted is totally unrealistic.
Now Bush tax rates are permanent which is much better than the deal Bush got which had an expiration date. With an expiration date, the democraps can simply let them expire, and no one in MSM will call it a tax hike.
With a permanent rate, the congress will have to actually produce a TAX HIKE bill. It can't be hidden from the voters. That is a big difference.
As for the payroll tax, it was a TEMPORARY holiday. It had an expiration date. And it expired.
Even better in the FC deal is the PERMANENT rates of 15% on Dividends and Capital Gains. That is a superior gift to any one who has lead a disciplined spending pattern and accumulated a viable 401-k, and also the seniors who own lion's share of the stock market.
So my kudos to McConnell for getting the Chicago community organizer to accept increase death tax threshold to $5-10 Million from the $1 Million threshold sans the FC bill.
I been making similar points, the opposition to the better plan B was all based on a lie : That taxes would not of went up if the House blocked anything from passing.
So the argument was dishonest from the start.
So now they are complaining that this passed Senate bill didnt have enough budget cuts, so Bohner was supposed to block tax cut extensions and ensure all the Bush rates went up because it was missing spending cuts?
Is this the argument?
Many have been bred-conditioned (brain-washed propagandized) into believing "Bush Rates" are a good thing.
With this facade (another government bailout), price on essentials, food, gas, autos, housing, etc., stay high, and thus MORE out of the paycheck comes out.
The market would have down 400> points, and prices would have started down. Now instead of of the paycheck going farther, it continues to go less to where it should due to fed paychecks driving up the prices on everything.
You don't "save a ton of money", by the paycheck not going as far. The standard of living continues to fall. along with the "brainwashing" that zero down brings ownership (in reality bank rent) of vehicle. Brainwashing.
There is no such thing a PERMANENT as far as taxes are concerned. Future Congresses are not bound by such agreements. These tax rates have no sunset clause, which doesn't make them PERMANENT.
The dividend and capital gains rates were raised on the so-called rich. Specifically,
Capital gains tax and dividends tax will be 20 percent for taxpayers with income over $400,000 (single) and $450,000 (joint filers). This does not include the new 3.8 percent health care tax on investment income above $200,000 (single) and $250,000 (joint filers) in adjusted gross income, so the top rate for capital gains and dividends will be 23.8 percent. For lower income levels, the tax will be 0 percent, 15 percent, or 18.8 percent.
This "excellent achievement" included:
Raises estate and gift tax to 40 percent, but above the current exemption level (~$5.12 million) and adjusted for inflation in future years.
Extends emergency unemployment compensation (EUC) and extended benefits (EB) unemployment insurance program through January 1, 2014.
Postpones sequester by two months; will now occur on March 27, 2013 (same day as the continuing resolution expires)
Phases out personal exemptions (PEP) for adjusted gross income over $250,000 (single), $275,000 (head of household) and $300,000 (joint filers).
Limits itemized deductions (Pease) for adjusted gross income over $250,000 (single), $275,000 (head of household) and $300,000 (joint filers)
The Reps created this crisis by agreeing to just extending the Bush tax cuts for two years after the 2010 midterms and signing on to the WH sequestration trap in 2011. The Reps are getting outsmarted in every deal. We need to examine the 157 page Fiscal Cliff deal closely. I bet there are other surprises including the pork that was also included in the deal.
I have seen your posts and yes, you have made rational comments. Most criticizers of the FC bill make blanket statements with NOTHING CONCRETE item by item refutation of the bill. So it is just hot air, and nothing substantive or realistic.
Neither Obama or the Republicans are the main problem with the nation imo. The problem with the country is hypocritical "patriots" who complain that Obama isn't respecting the Constituton, patriots themselves evidently not taking the initiative to learn the Constitution and its history.
In fact, if voters were to get up to speed on about two pages worth of constitutional statutes and case precedents, then they could arguably close down the unconstitutionally big federal government overnight. Patriots need to get up to speed on the Constitution's Section 8 of Article I, Article V, the 10th Amendment and also Justice John Marshall's clarification that Congress is prohibited from laying taxes in the name of state power issues, issues which Congress has no Section 8 authority to address.
"Congress is not empowered to tax for those purposes which are within the exclusive province of the States." --Justice John Marshall, Gibbons v. Ogden, 1824.And let Judge Andrew Napolitanto read Section 8 of Article I to you.
Judge Napolitano & the ConstitutionIn their wildest imagination, the drafters of the Constitution evidently didn't foresee that the best idea of the pursuit of happiness for many citizens would be to complain about tyrannical government, today's problems with unconstitutionally big federal government evidence that the part of the Constitution following the happiness clause was not worth the effort to write.
Yes, only death and taxes are permanent.
However even a superficial intellect can see the difference between a taxcut which HAS AN EXPIRATION DATE and on which DOES NOT.
With an expiration date, congress has to do NOTHING and it expires. With a permanent taxcut, the congress HAS TO ACTUALLY WRITE A TAX INCREASE BILL and get it passed in both houses and signed by the president.
If one can't see the difference, there is nothing any one can do to educate them.
However I will accede to you that the FC bill protects only MIDDLE CLASS tax payers (under $400-450k). The richer folks have gone back upto Clinton era tax rates. So I will take 98% of tax payers getting tax relief over none.
I can't emphasize enough the benefits of extending the death tax threshold. Without the FC bill, every estate would be taxed at 55% over $1 Million. That was written into law signed by Bush-43.
With the $10 million threshold, innumerable small businesses will not close down when the owner expires.
I am no Bohner fan but I don't tolerate dishonesty.
Bohner was put in a completely impossible position on this, one where he nor any other Speaker would have had a chance to win due to how success/failure was defined(success=forcing Reid and O to extend all tax rates by the threat of having no tax cut extensions in law) , and to make it sound rational the lie was repeated that this bill raised taxes.
Keep in mind that O/Dems repeated this, as as Rush and his talk radio lackeys, are and the MSM does it too. Why would they all together set the goal posts for GOP victory completely out of reach, so they are certain to fail?
Rush just now called this bill a tax increase that Rs went along with while throwing away core beliefs(???) in the process, and then he admitted the Bush tax cuts were temporary, all within 3 minutes.
I think no one does not know the truth. Even Rush fans repeating this know.
That pretty well sums up our predicament. It will not get better until we recognize that stupidity alone can not account for the GOPe actions.
Only a superficial intellect could call any tax rate PERMANENT. I can understand why the Reps would want to point to this as some sort of accomplishment. In point of fact, Obama will get the credit for this since the Reps in the House voted two to one against approval of the bill.
With an expiration date, congress has to do NOTHING and it expires. With a permanent taxcut, the congress HAS TO ACTUALLY WRITE A TAX INCREASE BILL and get it passed in both houses and signed by the president. If one cant see the difference, there is nothing any one can do to educate them.
If the Dems are successful in winning the House back in 2014 then they will have all they need to readjust the tax rates any way they want in 2015. Obama and the Dems have this in mind as they have successfully divided the Reps and got many of them to agree to vote for an increase in the tax rates for the so-called rich, many of them small businesses. It is just another "Read my lips" moment for the Reps, aka The Stupid Party.,
However I will accede to you that the FC bill protects only MIDDLE CLASS tax payers (under $400-450k). The richer folks have gone back upto Clinton era tax rates. So I will take 98% of tax payers getting tax relief over none.
LOL. So all the BS Romney and the Reps put out about raising the taxes on the rich would hurt small businesses costing over 700,000 jobs is just mere blather? And the taxes did go up on the MIDDLE CLASS with the failure to renew the payroll tax holiday. 80% of American income earners pay more in payroll taxes than they do in income taxes. The Dems are already blaming the Reps for this.
The Dems are not finished with the tax issue. They will be pushing to "close tax loopholes" and other benefit that allow the rich and corporations to escape paying their "fair share." The Reps will still be portrayed as protecting the rich. It is all part of the narrative leading up to the 2014 midterms. Add to this the bad old Reps trying to cut the entitlement programs and you have the very real possibility of the Dems winning the House in 2014.
is spending now greater than it was?
Is revenue now greater than it was?
Well yes but it would have been much worse.
Tax rates are all temporary unless it is a temporary tax then it is forever.
On January 1 all the tax rates went back to Clinton levels and this bill (passed Jan 2) pushed them back down to Bush levels for 99% So they went down not up
Those arguing that the bill raised taxes were lying, it was a tax cut.
RE: "Well yes but it would have been much worse. "
The 'dont pass nuthin into law' crowd got their way for 1 day and yes it was much worse, all taxes were are Clinton rates. That is where blocking this bill would of left them. This bill lowered them.
Rush just wanted all our taxes to go up because his did. So he called up down and down up as Gore would put it,.
Plan B didnt include that spending and it cuts taxes even more than this Senate bill did.
But no, the 'dont pass nuthin into law' crowd rejected that plan B (joining Pelosi yet) resulting in a much crappier deal' So what did they win us?
I noticed none of them ran for Speaker either
There is no "off" switch to the beast on the Potomac.
As Paine pointed out, tyranny is not easily defeated.
"It will not get better until we recognize that stupidity alone can not account for the GOPe actions."
Agreed. Stupidity gets some things right every once in a while if only by accident. To consistently do wrong is complicity.
The other way to look at it is, the taxes on income over $400K went up automatically per the extension law passed in late 2010, so this bill did not raise them as it left them as if it was never passed. It did nothing to those rates.
I agree that there is no practical off switch to tyranny. However, I think that we can sill learn from our mistakes with respect to stifling tyranny.
First of all keep at at top of your thinking....WE LOST THE ELECTION. Elections have consequences. GOP numbers went DOWN not up. If all GOP members walked out on the FC bill as you want....guess what happens? WE ALL GO UP TO CLINTON TAX RATES. The Bush tax cuts had an EXPIRATION DATE built in. Why is that so difficult for you to understand?
Of course I know no law is permanent. But can you comprehend the simple concept that a tax cut law which has an EXPIRATION date is much easier to get rid of than a tax cut law which has NO EXPIRATION dates as stipulated in the FC bill? If you can't grasp that simple fact I am afraid there is nothing I can say to you.
It was a status quo election. The GOP retained control of the House. Obama won with just 51% of the vote--less than he received in 2008 in terms of both votes and percentage. Romney received more votes than McCain. It was certainly not a mandate for Obama's policies.
If the GOP thinks they lost, then they behave like losers. I can remember when the Reps controlled Congress and the WH. The Dems still acted like they were the majority party. If the GOP is afraid to exercise the power it does have, then what does it matter if we control the House?
WE ALL GO UP TO CLINTON TAX RATES. The Bush tax cuts had an EXPIRATION DATE built in. Why is that so difficult for you to understand?
What is hard to understand is why the GOP agreed in 2001 and 2003 to include a sunset provision in the bill. No doubt the Dems influenced that decision by playing hardball even though they were the minority party.
And cut the smarmy, condescending crap. I understand that the law contained a sunset provision--another GOP mistake. The GOP should have just let the taxes go up on everyone. It could have been a teachable momement for the nation, which would have more skin in the game as to why our spending is out of control. When almost 50% of Americans pay no income tax and the top 1% pay 38%, there is an issue of fairness and the inability to make a small segment of our population carry the costs of the welfare state, which is unsustainable.
Right now, the majority of the American people want the rich to pay more if you believe the polls. And Obama is just getting started on increasing taxes on the rich. We are going to have this fight and the sooner the better. If the Clinton tax rates were so great and contributed to increased prosperity, then let's return to them for everyone not just the 1%.
Plan B had absolutely no chance of passing the Senate. Reid said he wouldn't even schedule it for a vote. It was DOA. The House had already passed bills covering the extension of the Bush era tax rates and an alternative to sequestration. The Senate just ignored them.
Not going up is not the same as going down. Circular logic is no logic at all.
You are beginning to sound like a paid shill for Boehner.
The tax bill lowered 99% from the higher Clinton rates to the lower Bush rates. The 1% stayed the same which is why Rush is livid that Bohner didnt make sure all our taxes stayed at the higher Clinton rates, livid because he didnt get the Bush tax cut this time round.
Who-ever programs you forgot to tell you they all went up Jan 1 with no bill signed into law and this cut them Jan 2.
It sounds like you believe everything Rush says even if it makes no sense at all, here is some of his past wisdom predicting that Mccain then Romney would easily beat O.
Talk radio giant Rush Limbaugh says that Sen. John McCain will score a stunning upset over Sen. Barack Obama and win the presidency on Nov. 4

I almost forgot this one :
We Could See a McCain Landslide (Rushlimbaugh.com, August 12, 2008)
The enthusiasm that got people out in 2010, I'm seeing at every Mitt Romney rally. Romney's drawing crowds of 20,000, 25,000, 30,000, 15,000. The enthusiasm that we all saw in 2010 is there. The same issues that existed in 2010 exist today. There hasn't been anything that's gotten better.
Rush: Everything But Polls Say Romney Landslide (Newmake Monday, 05 Nov 2012)
Ignore the polls saying Obama is winning Rush Limbaugh Says, Swing State Polls Are Bogus! (video posted 9/26/2012 )
Don't Doubt me LOL
Reid opposed it, Pelosi opposed it and Obama opposed it but more important those on the R side who objects to this final not as good Senate bill opposed it too.
Bohner was smart to bring that bill out, he smoked out those on the R side (the 'don't pass nuthin into law caucus') who only wanted all the taxes to go back the Clinton rates because they couldnt get 100% and would later claim it was the additional spending not in plan B, etc, was why the final bill was bad.
It was amazing, they opposed a 99% tax cut and demanded that Bohner hold out for 0% tax cut instead, which of course no Speaker would do.
The repeals of O-care went no where but these same folks voted for 33 of them, its make transparent excuses time with that one too.
Boehner is incompetent. He squandered his negotiating position after the historic 2010 mid terms and allowed the extension of the Bush tax cuts for just two years instead of making them permanent. And the agreement with the WH on the sequestration bill was just another example of being outsmarted by the WH.
Obama pushed on the raising of the rates on the rich as a means to divide and destroy the GOP. He was successful. What came out of the senate and passed by the House had more Dem votes than Reps. In the House, almost twice as many Reps voted against it as for it.
It was amazing, they opposed a 99% tax cut and demanded that Bohner hold out for 0% tax cut instead, which of course no Speaker would do.
No speaker would bring a bill up for a vote when the overwhelming majority of his party was against it. This 156 page monstrosity filled with pork is just another example of Reps surrendering when the rubber hits the road. It was a bad bill that could wind up costing hundreds of thousands of jobs and it will add to our debt and deficit.
Oh, and by the way, 77 million Americans will see their tax bills go up as the payroll tax holiday was ended after two years. Since 80% of Americans pay more in payroll taxes than they do in income taxes, this is significant, and the Reps will be blamed.
Next up are the battles over the debt ceiling, sequestration, and the CR. The Reps will lose everyone and they will be blamed by Obama and the Dems for trying to cut SS and Medicare benefits. This will set the stage for the 2014 midterms with the Reps having voting for increased taxes, cutting the military, and surrendering on the CR so as not to shut down the government. And the GOP base will question why it is even desireable to have the Reps in control of the House. I can assure you that the Tea Party has noted who voted for the fiscal cliff monstrosity and will go after them in the primaries. We have failed to cut spending by one cent and instead, have increased spending.
The repeals of O-care went no where but these same folks voted for 33 of them, its make transparent excuses time with that one too.
What is wrong with getting your opponents on record on Obamacare? The majority of voters are still against it and now that the taxes and penalties are kicking in, some of the pain will now be felt. And the costs of Obamacare will soar as the Dems passed the Doc fix again in the fiscal cliff bill. The so-called savings of $716 billion in Medicare will never happen, which means that they will not be able to offset the trillion plus costs of Obamacare.
So when do you want the GOP to fight against Obama and his trillion dollar a year annual deficits that will bankrupt and destroy this country? We have been told it was useless to fight the fiscal cliff deal since the GOP would be blamed for raising taxes. We are now told that fighting against the increase in the debt ceiling is the wrong fight and will hurt the country with disastrous consequences. Will the Reps come up with a deal on sequestration to avoid military cuts that includes increased taxes/revenue? And will the GOP risk shutting down the government by not passing a CR?
On that I have no argument. GOP needs to play more hardball, that is for sure. But can't go back and change history. I am surprised the democrats did not just let the Bush tax cuts expire. Because the MSM would not have held them accountable for the resulting tax increases in any shape or form.
I still think the FC deal was as good as could be negotiated at this time. The GOP had no leverage to extract any more. It is a big f...ing deal for investors and savers to get the 15% tax rate good until changed by congress, for all middle class and upper middle class. The rich got screwed but as you said, that is what is polling as popular.
On the issue of tax increases on rich, I am firmly convinced any tax increase on any one is never good for the economy. Now if only we can convince the under-informed voters... On a final note, no offense of any kind intended. We are fighting for the same cause. My hope is our next nominee in 2016 will be the best communicator there is, because by golly we need one.
Bohner is weak no doubt but I couldnt help notice that none of fwightened Wabbits in the 'nont pass nuthin crowd' would stand up and run against him. For weeks before the vote I challenged freepers to call their favorite fwightened wabbit and plead with him to run
The idea that Obama was going to give in and get Reid to extend all the tax cuts, when he ran against that and won, and he knew Bohner would get the blame for everyones taxes going up , is ridiculus. This is why none of the fwightened wabbits who opposed plan B ran for Speaker.
The path you demanded he take was a GOP death wish, raising everyones taxes just out of spite because a few were going up.
That was a direct result of rejecting plan B which had no such pork. And plan B showed it was not about the pork, the fwightened wabbit caucus was against a partial extension of our tax cuts even with no pork, they were told to hold out till all taxes go up.
Who could be so delusional to believe that Bohner was just going to walk away after plan B and let himself be bplamed for all taxes going up??
Bohner is weak for sure.
Pelosi would have called in the fwightened wabbits one by one and told them they work for her and better get on 'the team' (against Rs) or they would be using crutches.
That is how she got bills through. Sheer terror.
Bohner is weak, he wants to be Mr Nice guy and you see how that pays off.
Pelosi is a real fighter and is there for one purpose, to win and beat Rs and she doesnt tolerate personal agendas that help the other side beat her, as Bohner does.
But as I said, the fwightened wabbit caucus wouldnt run against him to be speaker themselves, they vote their symbolic Nos and then go on FNC and brag about their meaningless votes.
Sometimes no deal is better than a bad deal. That was the case in this instance. The bill will increase our debt and deficit and lose jobs. The Reps signaled from the very beginning that it did not want to jump off the fiscal cliff. It was their bottomline.
On the other hand, Obama gave every indication he would if he did not get what he wanted, i.e., increased taxes on the "rich." The objective was not increased revenue, but rather to humiliate and divide the GOP base. Obama was successful and it will pay dividends in 2014.
If the Reps had been true to its principles and committed to the long term fiscal well-being of the country, it should have gone off the cliff or at least expressed a willingness to do so if they got a bad deal. They chose the 156 page bad deal that will damage this nation even further while increasing spending and rewarding with pork Obama's allies whether it was in Hollywood or in the corporate world.
My hope is our next nominee in 2016 will be the best communicator there is, because by golly we need one.
The GOP is deluded if they think the problem was a failure to communicate our message. The majority of voters just isn't buying the message. The fact is that we have reached a tipping point demographically and politically. The Dems proved in 2012 election with the reelection of a failed President that the laws of normal political gravity no longer work. A culture of dependency and a growing minority vote guarantees that the Dems will keep the WH in 2016, no doubt with Hillary who will be our first woman President in another "historic" election. Demography is destiny.
No one had that idea that I am aware of. The problem was that Boehner indicated from the very start that his primary and virtually sole objective was not to go over the fiscal cliff. Obama, on the other hand, had no such compunction or limitation. Anyone who negotiates like Boehner is sure to lose. The Reps should have said that they would go over the fiscal cliff if they were offered a bad deal that increased taxes and the deficit and hurt the economy.
Going over the cliff was not an option for Boehner because he was afraid that the GOP would be blamed. He should have used it as an opportunity to start a national dialogue on our long term fiscal problems. With the Clinton tax rates reinstalled for everyone, the public's attention would be more focussed. Instead, we have a 156 page monstrosity that makes our fiscal problems worse and still damages the GOP who will be blamed for allowing the payroll tax holiday to lapse and for seeking cuts to SS and Medicare.
The path you demanded he take was a GOP death wish, raising everyones taxes just out of spite because a few were going up.
Out of spite? First taxes went up on virtually everyone with the end of the payroll tax holiday. Yes there were cuts in taxes for Hollywood, wind energy producers, algae growers, etc., but this was a bad deal that will hurt the economy, increase the debt and deficit, and lose jobs.
Two out of every three Reps in the House voted AGAINST this bill. It was a bad deal for anyone who understands what was in this pork laden 156 page bill. It will be an albatross around the necks of the Reps in 2014.
With the fiscal cliff deal and many Obamacare taxes taking effect, Americans will be slammed with an estimated $264 billion in new taxes this year alone making 2013 memorable for delivering one of the largest one-year tax increases in American history.
"Moodys chief economist Mark Zandi issued a projection that the tax burden will cut GDP growth by three-quarters of 1 percent, causing the creation of 600,000 fewer jobs in 2013. But the general consensus among economists is that the impact will be much worse about a 1.5 percent loss of GDP growth. Such a serious dip could push an already lackluster economy close to the brink of actual contraction.
Question: Why do continuously misspell Boehner's name? Is it on purpose?
Are you joking using this as an example?
You actually wanted Boner (Is that better?) to extend the FICA/SS tax cut or make it forever?
Dec 2010/Feb 2011 House Rs were forced to extend it an additional year by O demanding they do it on TV, now you argue now NOT doing the same was a Bohner cave?
So why did the Reps agree to it in the first place?
You are positing a false choice. There is no way that any tax cut can be made "forever," including the Bush tax cuts, which are now the Obama tax cuts. Supposedly, the rationale of implementing and extending both the Bush tax cuts and the payroll tax holiday was to not increase taxes during a period of economic weakness.
So do you favor extending the payroll tax holiday for another year or ending it?
Dec 2010/Feb 2011 House Rs were forced to extend it an additional year by O demanding they do it on TV, now you argue now NOT doing the same was a Bohner cave?
Most Reps were on-board with the payroll tax holiday, which was just another stimulus using SS as a vehicle. It costs over $130 billion a year. I was against it then and against it now. And yes, Boehner caved on both SS and extending unemployment benefits. The FC deal also extended unemployment benefits again.
On Friday, Gallup released a poll gauging Americans' views of the Senate deal passed last week to avert the "fiscal cliff." Overall, Americans are mixed on the deal, with 45% disapproving and 43% approving. Among Republican voters, though, the verdict is overwhelmingly negative. 65% of Republican voters disapprove of the plan, against just 27% who support it. It's the opening salvo in the 2014 primaries.
The GOP would be well advised not to kick its base in the teeth and help the Dems pass their bills in House, which is on paper controlled by the Reps. It will be a disaster for the Reps in 2014.
Dec 2011 House Rs tried to hold out and not pass it, Reid sent the Senate Home and O got on TV accusing Rs of being for increasing middle class taxes (sound familiar.)
First House Rs (the ones that opposed plan B) claimed they would stay for Christmas till the Senate came back and agreed to some budget cuts to 'pay for it' (ironic since Rush says that talk is Marxist) then they realized it was hopeless.
Republicans gave in for the same reason they always give in, public opinion was against them.
In this case O didnt demand it anymore so it just went away by itself.
You shouldn't be using stuff Bohner did that you support like not extending this tax 'holiday' against him.
If you want this to go up dont list it in you grievances when Bohner wins one for you/.
Which is one reason why the GOP is well on its way to being the permanent minority party. It is willing to compromise its basic principles in a futile and misguided attempt to curry public favor.
You shouldn't be using stuff Bohner did that you support like not extending this tax holiday against him. If you want this to go up dont list it in you grievances when Bohner wins one for you/.
Boehner didn't win anything for me. Both parties didn't want to extend the payroll tax holiday. They understand what the real fiscal condition of SS is and how the tax holiday didn't do anything except increase the deficit and debt. The payroll tax holiday increased the deficit by twice the amount of the revenue raised by taxing the rich.
If Boehner had any smarts, he could have used the extension of the payroll tax against Obama and the Dems.
"Anyone still need a reason to abandon "grand bargains" and deals negotiated between this President and GOP Congressional leaders? Here it is: The revival of two dormant provisions of the tax code means the much ballyhooed $450,000 income threshold for the highest tax rate is largely fake.
The two provisions are the infamous PEP and Pease, which aficionados of stealth tax increases will recognize immediately as relics of the 1990 tax increase. Those measures, which limit deductions and exemptions for higher-income taxpayers, expired in 2010. The Obama tax bill revived them this week. It isn't going to be pretty.
Under the new law, some of the steepest tax increases may fall on upper-middle class earners with incomes just above $250,000. Here's why:
During the negotiations, the White House won a concession from Republicans to allow phaseouts for personal exemptions and limitations on itemized deductions, starting at an income of $250,000 for individuals and $300,000 for joint filers.
The Senate Finance Committee informs us that in effect the loss of the personal exemptions, currently $3,800 per family member, can mean a 4.4 percentage point rise in the marginal tax rate for a married couple with two kids and incomes above $250,000. A family with four kids in that income range faces about a six percentage point marginal rate hike. The restored limitations on itemized deductions can raise the tax rate by another one percentage point.
Stop it. Taxes did not go down and posting whatever you want about Rush will not change that fact.
Spending went up and so did taxes. Just because they would have went up more if they had not acted, does not equal a Tax Cut. Propaganda works better over at DU, not so well here.
Your specious argument that taxes actually went up on Jan 1, therefore the bill to keep rates in place was actually a cut.
The two year extension paased by the 2010 lame duck raised the taxes to Clinton rates Jan 1 2013, as did FICA from a different bill in 2011.
The Senate Bill the House passed lowered them on Jan 2 for 99% of Americans except the 1% so if Bohner listened to you we would be paying more in taxes now than we are,.
Then Republicans would be truly hated for raising everyones taxes, it would have been a lose-lose.
$39.5 Billion in Income-Tax Rate Hikes. President Obama and the Democratic Senate insisted on letting the Bush tax cuts lapse on high-income earners. Such earners making more than $400,000 ($450,000 for married couples) will see their marginal income-tax rates rise from 35 percent to 39.6 percent. That shift is projected to garner $395 billion in taxes over the next 10 years. The tax affects less than 1 percent of American households but also impacts many high-spending professionals and successful small business owners who pay taxes on the personal returns.
$15 Billion from Limiting Deductions. The new law calls for a personal exemption phase out, or PEP, affecting the exemptions and deductions that wealthier families can claim. It affects individual filers at $250,000, and $300,000 for joint filers. The tax bill for a couple earning $400,000 averaging about $50,000 in deductions each year will rise by about $1,000 according to a Wall Street Journal calculation.
The cost of the new Obamacare tax hikes coming in 2013:
$21 Billion in Medicare Taxes. The healthcare law calls for a nine-tenths of 1 percent increase in the hospital-insurance (Medicare) payroll tax paid by couples earning more than $250,000 a year, or $200,000 per year for single filers.
$11 Billion from Surcharge on Capital Gains and Dividends. Married couples earning more than $250,000 per year, or single filers earning $200,000 will be slapped with a 3.8 percent surcharge in the tax rate for capital gains and dividends in addition to the fiscal cliff compromise that hiked taxes on capital gains and dividends from 15 to 20 percent.
$4.5 Billion in Limiting Deductions. Obamacare eliminates corporate deductions for retirees prescriptions, raising tax costs to employers.
$2 Billion in Excise Fees. A 2.3 percent excise tax on manufacturers and importers of medical devices, which is expected to be passed along in higher costs to consumers.
$2 Billion in Limiting Healthcare Itemized Deductions. This reflects a reduction in the amount that middle-class families facing high medical expenses can deduct from their income taxes if they incur high medical expenses.
$1.3 Billion from Limiting Flexible Savings Accounts. A $2,500 limit will go into effect on tax-free flexible spending accounts, which employees use to help defray medical expenses.
For the past two years of this tax cut much of this was the SS admin was redeeming the 'trust fund' IOUs to the treasury at a much faster rate than before/without it. Of course the Treasury buys back the IOUs by borrowing money from the Fedearl Reserve.(Medicare does the same thing)
So the path was Federal Reserve(loans) to US Treasury to SS Admin to retired voter so Grandpa doesnt figure out his $$ is long gone.
All the while both parties been saying SS adds nothing to the national debt even though it $$$ has to be borrowed to get to pay the seniors , they do this by calling the SS IOUs it holds (it got from itself) both part of the national debt and an gov asset at the same time.
Loan yourself some money that you borrowed from elsewhere (depending how you see the Federal Reserve) and call it an asset. Cool huh??
If it doesnt Republicans will never be believed again.
If it does they will have an argument against Dems for a change.
2009 to 2012 the Rs trapped themselves with help from Obama who knew what he was doing, unlike them
"This economy is doing terrible because of the crushing Bush era taxes" was not working, as we saw in November (2012).
No, that is not the way things work. SS is a pay as you go program, i.e., today's workers pay for today's retirees. SS has been running in the red, i.e., benefits paid out exceed revenue, since 2010. In order to make up the shortfall, non-market, interest bearing T-bills are redeemed by the General Fund so benefits can be paid.
The SSTF will continue to run in the red until all of the T-bills in the SSTF are exhausted. After that, SS, by law, can only pay benefits equal to the revenue taken in. 2033 is the date that starts happening. It is estimated that SS will only be able to 80% of the benefits at that point.
The SSTF is included in the $16.4 trillion national debt under "Intragovernmental Holdings" as distinct from the publicly held debt.
Source: CBO Combined OASDI Trust Funds; January 2011 Baseline 26 Jan 2011. Note: See Primary Surplus line (which is negative, indicating a deficit)
Matters are even worse than this chart shows. In December, Congress passed a Social Security tax reduction. Workers are temporarily paying 2 percentage points less, from 6.2 percent to 4.2 percent, in Social Security payroll taxes this calendar year. Since the government is making up the shortfall out of general revenues, CBOs deficit projections for the trust funds do not include that. But CBOs figures predict that the payroll tax holiday will cost the governments general fund $85 billion in this fiscal year and $29 billion in fiscal year 2012 (which starts Oct.1, 2011.) Since every dollar of that will have to be borrowed, the combined effect of the tax holiday and the annual deficits will amount to a $130 billion addition to the federal deficit in the current fiscal year, and $59 billion in fiscal 2012.
Social Security has passed a tipping point. For years it generated more revenue than it consumed, holding down the overall federal deficit and allowing Congress to spend more freely for other things. But those days are gone. Rather than lessening the federal deficit, Social Security has at last as long predicted become a drag on the governments overall finances.
As recently as October, CBO was projecting that it would be 2016 before outlays regularly exceed revenues. But Social Securitys fiscal troubles are more severe than was thought, and the latest projections show the permanent deficits started several years ahead of earlier predictions.
Dont be confused by the fact that the trust funds are projected to continue growing for several more years. Thats because Treasury must still credit interest payments to the funds on the borrowings from earlier years. But unless taxes are increased or other spending is cut severely, the government will have to borrow from the public to pay the interest that it owes to the trust funds.
And dont be misled by those who say the system can pay full benefits until about 2033 without making any changes to the law. Thats true, but does not change the fact that Social Security taxes no longer cover those benefits. The government is now borrowing money to pay them, and will do so every year for the foreseeable future. And keep in mind, if nothing is done, when those trust funds are exhausted, benefits would have to be cut by 22 percent in 2033, and more each year after that, according to the most recent report of the systems trustees. By 2084, the system will generate only enough revenue to pay for 75 percent of promised benefit levels.
Of course the Treasury buys back the IOUs by borrowing money from the Federal Reserve.(Medicare does the same thing)
Nonsense. Our publicly held debt, about $11.4 trillion, has many holders. They include foreign and domestic investors and the Federal Reserve, which buys up treasuries in order to drag down interest rates through quantitative easing. Fully two-thirds of the national debt is owed to the U.S. government, American investors and future retirees, through the Social Security Trust Fund and pension plans for civil service workers and military personnel. $5.4 trillion of the $11.4 trillion is foreign owned with China and Japan holding about a trillion each. The Feds hold about $2 trillion of the national debt.
The idea that we can continue to pay out money we don't have because the Fed can print money is insane. FYI: Medicare is far worse than SS. Medicare Part A has been running in the red since 2008. And by law, the premiums for Medicare Parts B and D pay for only 25% of the costs of the programs. The other 75% comes from the General Fund. In FY 2011, the cost was $222 billion from the General Fund and those costs will continue to skyrocket as the baby boomer generation retires at 10,000 a day for the next 20 years. If Medicare is not reformed, it will consume the entire federal budget.
Loan yourself some money that you borrowed from elsewhere (depending how you see the Federal Reserve) and call it an asset. Cool huh??
How can it be called an asset when it is included in the national debt? The T-bills held by the SSTF, the HI trust fund, the federal pension fund, etc. are just as valid as those held by the Chinese. They are debts, not assets.
What are you talking about? The economy will never "shut down." It will either get better or worse, but as long as man engages in the trade of goods and services, there will be an economy.
Except the SS trust fund T-bills are not really T-bills, they are just IOUs the SS dept got from the treasury dept when they transferred FICA taxes to general revenue to spend back when FICA collected more than benefits.
In contrast T-bills are those bills that the Treasury sells to get the money, they can be bought and sold.
Actually one congressman on Cavuto today played up the joke like he was serious. He said that SS and medicare benefits can be paid without increasing the debt limit. They can be paid out of the 'trust fund'. I loved it, I suggested that line in 2011.
let Dems argue against that one.
you and I are on different frequencies as you always see past my points.
When does the economy appear (to voters) that it got substantially worse than it was last year 2012 to we can convince them it was caused by the taxes on income over $400K?
It really doesnt matter what really causes it, but it has to happen or all those warnings that it will from Rs the past ~ 4 years will appear to be just another WMD argument to general voters dooming Rs again.

From the day we're born, we're assigned a color to signify our gender: blue for boys; pink for girls. Parents dress their babies in these symbolic shades to proudly proclaim their child's gender and avoid awkwardness from passersby ("Oh, your baby is adorable! Is it a boy or a girl?"). This practice also educates us at an early age which hues to gravitate toward (and stay away from) when we're old enough to start choosing our own clothes. Personally, I'm not a huge pink fan; purple is more my color. But, in honor of National Pink Day, I've selected some pretty pieces to help you embrace your feminine fashion.
Nothing says summer more than sailing the ocean blue. And although not all of us are fortunate enough to be docking our sailboats in Cape Cod this summer, we can all enjoy incorporating the classic nautical trend into our wardrobes. The nautical trend has always been one of my favorites. Although it isn't exactly a 'new' trend, it is certainly a very prominent one this summer. From boatneck striped tops to high-waisted shorts to espadrilles and even nautical-inspired jewelry, there is definitely a way for everyone to incorporate some element of this trend into their wardrobe.
Going on vacation is exciting! It's great to take a break and relax; explore new cities or return to favorite hot spots. But the preparation can be downright stressful. There are always last-minute trips to the drug store and the frantic charging of electronics. Leading the stress movement: packing! Deciding what to take and what to leave behind is a difficult task. How do I know? Because I just got back from a 2-week trip to Italy, and Claudia just spent a weekend in Mexico. Use our recent travel experiences as a guide for your next packing predicament.

Anguillita is a small, uninhabited rocky island off the western tip of, and part of the country of Anguilla,[1] located in the Caribbean. It's the dependency's southernmost point, located at coordinates 18°9' N, 63°11' W. Its average elevation is inverted compared to most, at -89 feet below sea level.[1]
Unlike Scrub Island, a larger island off the Eastern Tip and which has two excellent beaches, Anguillita is rarely even seen, since the western tip is virtually inaccessible by foot. As such it is rarely visited by tourists, though it is accessible by sea kayak.
Anguillita offers opportunities for scuba divers, and good snorkelling conditions can be found off its rugged coast. Species such as barracudas, stingrays, and turtles can be seen in its waters. There are three ledged mini-walls at a depth of some 5-20 metres, and numerous small underwater caves.
