In Need of a New Year, Already!

In a nonbinding caucus vote, Democrats in the House rejected the plan. However, Democratic leaders in both houses said the plan will probably pass in the end -- though House leaders hope to at least alter it. Speaker Nancy Pelosi said Thursday, "We will continue discussions with the President and our Democratic and Republican colleagues in the days ahead to improve the proposal before it comes to the House floor for a vote." At least seven House Democrats have already committed to support the plan.  The Hill ~ Editor’s note:  This is a classic playground stunt of taking your ball and going home if you can’t have your way in a dispute.  While the Democrats decide what they will do to save some face, Rome continues to burn unabated…the “Doc Fix” that maintains doctor fees in the Medicare program was approved, thereby adding $19 billion to the debt.  China just heard a loud ka-ching resonate across the land as they purchased large tracts of the United States as collateral!
Blind Ideology! http://tinyurl.com/29455vj  This oddicle hits one out of the ballpark…as Democrats are so blinded by their hatred for the rich and deep desire to redistribute income they fail to see the naked prize that will befall them if they side up with the Nobama and plunge the country deeper into debt.  This is the ultimate way to redistribute wealth as taxes will be forced to increase and the rich will pay more.  I guess this predicament is not unlike someone buying a dude three ice cream cones, and he is so concerned about holding them he loses focus of the melting problem!  
Foreclosure Redux!  http://tinyurl.com/2brglhd  This oddicle caught my eye because it forecasts a repeat of one of the worst political decisions bestowed on this country.  A chicken in every pot and a home for every family, whether or not it was affordable was not to be questioned.  All sanity regarding risks and morality was disregarded and all those who questioned the practice were summarily dismissed as being without compassion.  After three years of hell the government is planning to bet on a dead horse!  Why is government allowed to play in our sandbox?
A Most Diabolical Plan!  http://tinyurl.com/2c2y7qp  If America isn’t under attack then why is all this shooting going on?  The Southern Poverty Law Center is a front for communistic activities that are aimed at the core of religion and morality.  This oddicle helps us to understand their part in the grand conspiracy to destroy the basis for a Republican form of government.  Remember Rome fell because of overspending, moral decay and civil distractions! It’s strange that the media doesn't remind Americans of these historical facts!
Russian Roulette Democrat Style!  http://tinyurl.com/23cdd7p  An old saying goes something like when your opponent is digging a hole don’t take away his shovel, close enough for government work.  In this case the Democrats have dug so deep that their isn’t a ladder that will reach the top.  If they capitulate and vote for the tax bill they will be marginalized as paper tigers.  If they stand firm and let the compromise die they will be the cause of the tax increase and Nobama will be marginalized.  Win, win the way I see it...it's a good thing they don't!
Unforced Entry!  http://tinyurl.com/dxjvo8  This oddicle is short and sweet and so will be my aside.  Once a legislator loses an election he/she doesn’t have the right to shape policy or enact law.  Abolish the lame duck session of Congress!  Some of the losers may cast votes that will harm the economy or play the role of spoiler.  We must protect the process!
