OMG! It's the Fiscal Cliff!

All lemmings - please move to the back of the bus!

And we're off!

WHOOO HOOO!

Hang on California, you're next!

Man, when TW censors himself you know things have gotten out of hand.

You know it's bad for Boehner when George Hamilton asks for his autographed bottle of Hawaiian Tropic back.

Capital Hill. Slowly they turned. Step by step. Inch by inch. They smashed them. They hit them. They lied about them in TV ads. Rivers of blood. Pools of blood. The blood!

Its been a long time since they called one another pal.

Meanwhile, who is the victim here. Not all are bald. And yet we all are only Curly.

Fiscal Cliff. Slowly we turned. Accusation by accusation. Job loss after job loss. Until suddenly 89 out of 97 found they really could agree.

Now let's go have an Alice in Wonderland tea party. Good reason why they call that the Lower House.

Smile when you say "tea party," Mister.

Who cares what the Senate does when the House might as well be filled with Cheshire Cats for all the good they NEVER do?

Meanwhile, back at the ranch...

It's a beautiful day down here at the bottom of the canyon. The Colorado River is sparkling in the winter sun and there's a couple of bighorn sheep grazing near the talus slope across the river from me. There's cliffs everywhere around here. I'm just relaxing and taking in the views. CNN and everyone else should do the same instead of attempting to herd all those cats back in DC.

When they say go jump off a cliff, then you will find how fiscal it can be. The day is not so beautiful when you get to the bottom.

And so the Chesire Cat (Rush Limbaugh) will laugh. He called for America to fail. And gets what he wanted because we listen to his rhetoric - and jumped off that cliff.

Fiscal Falls. Slowly we turned ...

Alice, Curly ... does not matter. We are all victims when some pal (a business school graduate) said he would fix the economy by cutting taxes for the rich. Even went to Pittsburg, Miami, Dallas and New Orleans to promoted it. Economics then took revenge - as even Curly learned.

Clearly we all need even bigger guns to solve this. Do they make depleted uranium bullets? Go nuclear for a sparkling future.

BTW, not all cats like to be petted as you might already know.

Geez, lighten up, tw! This is Sam, the one who started this stupid thread. I've e-mailed my so-called Representatives, written letters to the editor of several newspapers, voted for Obama, canvassed for the Dems prior to the election, etc., etc., etc.

You may think the situation is bad, but I'm out here in the trenches and I KNOW the situation is bad. However, RFN, the House is composed of the same ignorant, far right ideologues who are in it for some devious end of their own and Country be damned. These reptiles lack the ability to act for any reason other than a few neural sparks from their stem brains. That's not going to change today or tomorrow or next week. MAYBE when the new Congress goes into session, the House might agree to something or other.

Meanwhile, I'm just laying back and enjoying the show, because that's the only option any of us regular people in the US now have. I choose my battles and the current DC sideshow ain't one of them.

One of the nice things about being out here in Canyonlands is that the Rush Limbaugh reception is nothing but a bunch of static. Fitting, yes? So, chill out and take a couple of extra days holiday vacation, and I'll show you around. This is a spectacular place and helps put everything in its proper perspective.

PS Thank you for your concern re the mountain lion. Turns out it was just a clever ad for some smart phone outfit and created by a desperate Sri Lankan working in an outsourced anime' factory. Meow?

PSS One of the members of the Sri Lankan camera crew just told me that a Reptilican Represetative went on CNN and accused the Senate of being drunk on New Year's cheer when they passed the 2am measures this morning. The Reptilican went on to complain that Obama wanted to squander billions on stupid stuff like extending unemployment benefits and Hurricane Sandy relief. Yeah! Those stupid people who don't have jobs by now should should just go hang out in the park until a "job creator" comes along and graciously offers them a minimum wage job at Walmart. Plus, I never cared much for the East Coast myself. SCREW New Jersey! SCREW New York! If people are deluded enough to live in those places they deserve MORE hurricanes, not hurricane relief.

This situation is created by wacko tea party types (who even tried to elect a witch to the Senate from Delaware). Anybody need an archetype for this entire situation? His name is Eric Cantor. With blind followers who signed Norquist's pledge.

Senate voted 89 to 8 to solve the problem. Intelligence prevailed. But wacko extremists in the House (same people who have backstabbed Speaker Boehner) are doing exactly what Limbaugh ordered. "We want America to fail."

Only lanquid humor can comprehend their stupidity.

Who are these idiots who subverted McCain's and Romney's campaigns. And even worshipped Sarah Palen? Eric Cantor is only the prototype of the new Republican party typified by Ann Coulter.

Even Three Stoogers never performed so much violence.
