60 billion? It was 100 billion this morning.

I'd also like to see some legislation preventing Obama from regulating what congress refused to pass. Something like, "if congress voted it down, the president is prohibited from achieving the same act through exec orders, regulation, or threatening people with Michelle"

6 It's already ON :

 Republicans getting rid of the unconstitutional practice of letting 'delegates' ( who shouldn't be there in the first place ) vote when the House is in the Committee of the Whole

7 Best defense is a good offense. Make those commie donkeys tell America why all this bleeping spending is neccessary. Again and again and again. O, it's for the children? Fuck the children. Let the little bastards get jobs like the rest of us.

8 Go Go Gadget Subpoena

9 We all AREN'T socialists now. And fuck you 111th congress.

10 Jebus, they must really be desperate.  It sounds like the GOP is following the advice of Rush Limbaugh!

11 Hahaha. The tools in DC are having a cow over their not letting Eleanor Holmes Norton from hell vote. They are threatening violent protests. Seriously.

As the new members of Congress get deeper into their re-election campaigns -- which started last November third -- you'll see rhetoric get louder and results diminish.

I'm not expecting any of us to live long enough to see the House (much less Senate) call for the closing of wasteful agencies, come up with a budget that even gets down to 2010 levels or take any substantive action to reduce Osama Obama's ability to unconstitutionally grab power.

Frankly, my expectation of Boner's new House is that it will "pass" lots of window-dressing bills for the Senate to piss on in the first days and weeks, then go back to treason business as usual.

13

 It sounds like the GOP is following the advice of Rush Limbaugh!

Let's hope.

14 P.S. I hope I'm wrong....

15 I'll give $100 to the RNC if they officially take the "w" out of Committee of the Whole

16 Thank God no more Pelosi speeches! 

This says it all:

Yep. Executive order and regulatory manipulation will kill us before we can vote the bastard out of office.

Already we've got states ignoring these rules and regs (hat tip to Texas) while they're litigated.  I imagine if the whole-sale destruction of the US continues, some states will just continue flat-out ignoring Zero's rules and regs regardless of what the courts say -- and show other states that's the only way they and the US will survive. 

18

Senate Republicans are looking ahead to a pair of opportunities in the next several weeks in which McConnell could re-create his role in negotiating the broad bipartisan deal last month to extend the Bush-era tax cuts.

Translation: Weak knee'd rino squshes will surely hasten the end of days of our once beloved Republic.

 

 

19 I'd also like to see some legislation preventing Obama from regulating what congress refused to pass. Something like, "if congress voted it down, the president is prohibited from achieving the same act through exec orders, regulation, or threatening people with Michelle" Thats already covered in the Constitution. The problem is that our elected betters consider the Constitution to be, at most, a suggestion. We have a mechanism to deal with this problem, called Impeachment. Let's start Obama then move on to the rest of the clowns that don't understand their Constitutional roles. I figure that Chicago Jesus' easy crossed the line with the "punish our enemies" bit, the bowing, etc., not to mention the rest of his nonsense.

20 I really really hope that some of these tea party people will push the envelope.

21 And check out the hilarious new pic on Drudge.  Lol.

I didn't think she'd ever shut up.  Just her way of sticking it to the rest of the country.

23

Watching Boehner grab that gavel was the highlight of my day. Also, watching who fell asleep during his speech.

All these proceedings are rather boring, but I find it oddly entertaining.

I also like to watch grass grow and paint dry. Oooh, look, a squirrel.

And that's Mr. Excitement to you.

She talks 23 minutes, he talks 10.  I wanted to get the hook for that bitch after the first 5 minutes.  Someone photo shop her face into the wicked witch video!

25 No tears? WTF?

26 29 I'm not sure, he was wiping away but wasn't full out crying. I went to a funeral with him and he cried more than the widow. Really nice guy though.

27 $60 billion? They can do that. It'll take a lot of politics to force the hands of Democrats on this, though.

Problem is we added ONE TRILLION to the debt last year. 60 BILLION is barely a rounding error.

28 Oh no, 10% of the democrats don't vote for the witch.

29 $60B? Wow, how bold.

30 29 No tears? WTF?

He cried when the witch introduced his family.

31 29 No tears? WTF?

Not on the dais. He shed some tears around 11am EST and after the delegation brought him back into the chamber, but not while he was speaking.

32 Obama is worried the US is going to "fall backward". Yeah, fall backward into a republic instead of desolving into a marxist tyranny.

33 Some will try to go along to get along but we're watching and will get them on the next election.

Right. I feel the same way about this as I would hearing the police say "next time these crooks try to rob another bank, we're really gonna get their asses."

34 But I'll bet myleftnut that Ted Kennedy museum & shrine & bar will be fully funded and built in the next two years.

35 ObamaCare repeal debate begins on Friday

36 Yahoo "news" has been moving further left every day but its coverage of this over the last couple of days makes the Daily Kos look non-biased.

37 10 minutes ago I turned on the TV and saw reports of a Nebraska school shooting. Left the room, came back and the story on now is about an Arizona mall shooting. Time to turn off the TV.

38 >>>60 billion? It was 100 billion this morning Because they're talking about the *remainder of the fiscal year,* which is already almost half over. ( think it started in oct.) So $100 billion per year is $60 billion, pro-rata.

39 where's Toby? (the human, not the beagle)

40 Party leaders said they hope to use the March 4 expiration of the temporary measure that funds the government, as well as the need to lift the federal debt ceiling above $14 trillion, to extract concessions from Obama.

That needs to be their number 1 priority. Individual budget items that take massive control and cuts of some of these worthless departments.

That and stopping the EPA/FCC power grab.

Then the committees need to start hitting the "Czars".

41 The RNC should put up billboards (like the "Miss Me Yet?" Bush signs) with names of those that vote to uphold Obama care. In twenty foot letters. Make them own this, and make them painfully aware of the buffalo stampede of karma approaching them from behind.

42 *putting pinky finger up to mouth*

We'll have no problem cuttin 100 biiiiiiiiiillion, 60 biiiiiiiiiiiiillion, ok, maybe 100 miiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiillion dollars!

43 I, for one, am excited about the new House and its changes.

44

The first quarter of the fiscal year just ended on dec 31. So 60 billion would be less than 75%. But I see what they are trying to do.

45 If Boner and Cantor were savvy, and they're not, they'd set out goals to be met by December, 16, 2011, the anniversary of the Boston Tea Party. Namely, the repeal of Obamacare, and the lopping off of 10% of the annual budget.

46

Here's what I don't get, on the two page repeal of ObamaCare, why doesn't the house raise the debt limit to 16 Trillion.

And then say...there we voted to raise the debt limit, if Obama doesn't like it too bad, that's the way the debt limit gets raised, and the only way.

Politically, if 60% want ObamaCare repealed how is this a losing position, if the response is the democrats say Republicans are holding the debt limit hostage say, no Democrats are, we passed a debt limit increase, it's that or nothing. Sorry.

Maybe Ace would run a football-style betting pool, so we could all pick our "scores" on this Congress and see how they stack up with reality.

I, for one, would be rooting for myself to be horribly wrong with my "picks."

But I'd probably win.

48 I want to have Pelosi's baby.

49 37 Obama is worried the US is going to "fall backward". Yeah, fall backward into a republic instead of desolving into a marxist tyranny.

When your car is going off a cliff, the only logical thing to do if you wish to survive is to throw the car in reverse.

That is a great idea but I would add lower the tax rates below the Bush numbers and propose a budget that is slashed by 25 - 50%. See if the Purple Lipped Commie can handle it.

52 Tobe, speaking of going 'backwards,' when's the last time you posted the January 2007 stats?

53 Good idea Soothsayer. #51. In the spirit of newly-minted symbolism, mark the date on the calender. Boston Tea Party Day, our new national holiday!

54

Screw the 60 billion.  That leads to logrolling and all kinds of suboptimal BS.

10% across the board.  Everyone.  And that prohibition against "homeland defense" cuts is just a pork rope-off.

55

I am not worried about their ability to cut $ 60 Billion considering that 3 years ago the budget was $2.5 Trillion and now it's $3.6 Trillion. The only inflation in the whole country in 3 years has been in DC.

We need to do alot more though but $60 billion is a start.

56

Your a dog?

Euro dog?

Your a dog a did a what?  Eh?

57 Also, can one of our smarter morons make a list of what the Republican House *can* do? Like, specifics, and shit.

58 May God speed the gavel.

59 Soothsayer - Fail to table a debt ceiling bill, that bill must start in the House, without significant concessions -- or -- make it a short limit and hold the Dem's the fire every 6 months. Everything else is in the Appropriations bills - those must start in the House - thus if the Pub's fail to table an EPA bill, no EPA. Then there is the GAO and investigating committees.

60

Posted by: Buster Hymand at January 05, 2011 03:09 PM

Keeping tax rates where they are and slashing the budget by 5% is probably more than either Congress or the Traitor-in-Chief can handle.

We need to demand that the general budget be cut by a minimum of 25%, all worthless agencies be closed within 90 days (that would include EPA, IRS, DoE, PBS, NEA, and all agencies that duplicate private-sector work), and end all subsidies/giveaways. Reduce foreign aid by 75% through removal of all nations with which we don't have good relations ("good" as far as the nation is concerned, which would cut off all of Osama Obama's buddyroos). Withdraw from the UN. Reduce/eliminate our participation in the World Bank. No more bailouts of any kind.

All that could be done within two weeks, even given Congress's penchant for three-day workweeks and long lunches.

61 ah, yes, the investigating committees!

62 Love that Drudge pic...jazz hands!  (Followed by satisfying hollow sound)

Ah, for a saner, more just world...

63 Tobe, speaking of going 'backwards,' when's the last time you posted the January 2007 stats?

It's been a while, as I am ashamed of not updating them to a current comparison.

I'm like 6 months behind on some of them.

64 fuckyeah

65

Wasn't the gavel that Johnny B asked for the gavel Piglosi was waving around on the way to the Capital to pass the deathcare bill?

That, to me, was the best part of the whole day.  Looks like Boehner doesn't have a problem smacking the pig around when it's necessary, or when it's just a smack for the hell of it.

66 Nonfarm employment in thousands   Dec 2006:  137,000   November 2010:  130,539

Federal Debt as % of GDP  2006:  64.55  2008:  70.00  2009:  90.36  2010:  94.27

The can cut defense as well. Everything in it that is not defense and the commies added a LOT of that.

70 Dennis Miller was right....when this witch is speaking, you find yourself shaking your head no so fast that you could mix paint in your mouth....

Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) said Tuesday that repealing Obamacare would do "very serious violence to the national debt and deficit." (Snip) “If everyone in America was very, very pleased with his or her health insurance and had no complaints, and had access to quality affordable health care in our country, it still would have been necessary for us to pass the health-care reform bill because we could not sustain the system,” Pelosi said on Tuesday. That is because Obamacare is a money saver, she argued.
