I find it amazing how fast the Obama liberal socialist marxian agenda gets passed in just one week... I guess he found his political lameduck Democrat muscle despite having the same amount of Republicans. It shows us how they planned to use each one of these agenda items for more political capital in future months or years....however, the earned no currency in November and now have to spend any leftover capital they have. rofllol rofllol

START for one....only a socialist would want to join Russia in a nuclear arms treaty. Unemployment benefits for another 13 weeks for two...

but let's talk about the liberal agenda.

Those are hardly socialist or marxist. But let's just pretend to be outraged.

Yah. Right. Socialist.

The treaty had the support of the nation’s uniformed military leaders and of a host of Republican national security veterans, including former President George H. W. Bush and five former secretaries of state, Henry A. Kissinger, George P. Shultz, James A. Baker III, Colin L. Powell and Condoleezza Rice.

In addition to Mr. Corker, the Republicans voting for the treaty on Wednesday were Senators Lamar Alexander of Tennessee, Robert F. Bennett of Utah, Scott P. Brown of Massachusetts, Thad Cochran of Mississippi, Susan Collins and Olympia J. Snowe of Maine, Judd Gregg of New Hampshire, Johnny Isakson of Georgia, Mike Johanns of Nebraska, Richard G. Lugar of Indiana, Lisa Murkowski of Alaska and George V. Voinovich of Ohio.

I think Obama showed that he does still have a lot of political power even after the "shellacking" he took in November.

The START treaty was a little one sided toward Putin but it is probably better to have our inspectors get renewed access to the nuclear weapons of Russia.

And even more impressive, Obama overruled the liberal wing of his party, let the tax code be locked in for the next two years, gave a stimulus to Social Security payers, and convinced Republicans to overule the TEA party and take on massive new amounts of debt.
Pretty good for a POTUS who had been letting Pelosi & Reid write new legislation.

Other than keeping taxes the same and a few other things in that Republican led and passed bill, none of anything else he passed, helped our economy or helped to create jobs to help our growing unemployment. And he still cheers for all the other crap he pushes through while people go homeless and have no money for Christmas. A class act! The worst President ever!

Did your taxes go increase or decrease in the past year?

Cuz you know, taxes actually went down under Obama this last year.

After all, neutral economists insist that, under the Obama administration, the overwhelming likelihood is that your tax burden has gone down, not up. Even conservative economic analysts acknowledge that there really is no basis for middle- and working-class Americans to believe that they're suddenly paying more.

Yeah, isn't it amazing that 40% of the "Stimulus" bill that the Righties love to p*ss & moan about went directly to tax-cuts and into people's pockets?!?!? Who knew?!?!?
