I guess that depends on where the compromises took place. Anyone thinking they would get the whole deal isn't realistic anyway.
Why would the Republicans turn on the Republicans?Quote:

VRWC-funded tea baggers and their freshman Congresspeople were/are itching for shutdown. It's all part of the VRWC hate/destroy-govt-as-ONLY-problem. The more VRWC can fuck up govt, the more it "proves" how fucked up govt IS the ONLY problem.
Same kind of LIE as trickle-down/voodoo economics. Just get rid of taxes and the super-wealthy class' wealth will trickle down to us all.
Just get rid of govt and all will be well.
Cock Bros have funded/hired tea bagger Congress people to gut/defund EPA, IRS, CFPA, SEC so Cock Industries can increasingly destroy earth, air, water, food without penalty and speculate with commodities.
Never should have been a doubt.
Tea Party peeps need to keep putting pressure on repugs and dems. Keep preaching "cut spending" and getting rid of the Obamacare. The senate has to vote on Obamacare, that was apart of the budget deal. There are 4-5 democrats that could flip sides ending that mess of a bill maybe more. It will eventually be repealed, dems and barry need to just end the thing now, pull the bandaid off fast and move on. I bet barry would get a free pass from the majority of independence if he ends the obamacare nonsense.Quote:

Tea Party members Michele Bachmann, Rand Paul blast budget deal as John Boehner claims victory

============
Extremist assholes like Bachmann and Paul are gonna split the Repug vote and assure Barry's win in 2012.
Bullshit, the Tea Party people claiming that they want funding for Planned Parenthood cut off completely because of the budget are lying and hiding their intentions in an incredibly obvious, boldfaced manner.Quote:

do not tell the gov the dem will say keep spending raise taxes on the rich
they did something wrong they got rich
so true...the Tea Party has a social agenda not a deficit spending agenda, they are simply attempting to hold Boner and the rest of the GOP hostage with this budget deal until the GOP agrees to push its social/pro-business, anti-enviroment agenda harder.....Quote:

waaaaaaa abortion waaaaaaaaaaaaaa. Pretending like you care about some crackhead's baby that you will bitch about supporting on your tax dime and probably rob your ass in the future will not get you into Heaven. How about your take 5 and put an end to this world police bullshit for a couple years.

I really don't believe the Dems caved again to people who have stated pretty publically that they aren't interested in comprimise. One side gives and gives and gives, and the other keeps pushing. There is some danger of giving in to zealots.Quote:

I do have to give props to the rather brave Republican to had the sack to propose changes to Medicare. I give the odds on his reelection to be slim after AARP gets ahold of his ass. Sad, because we need someone willing to stick his neck out to fix the problem.
and the gov will keep spending it and pretty soon they will not get as much because they already got it and the defieciets get biggerQuote:
