Well, well now Big Eddy is saying exactly what I have been

[nadinbrzezinski]

saying. There is no compromise with junk yard dogs.

But I guess I am wrong, so is big eddy... let's see how this goes in 2012...

with a box of rocks that only reacts to fear, you use fear.

McConnell wants to take your Social Security.

Speaker Boehner wants to take your medicare.

Yes, it is that simple.

[polichick]

1. I pray the prez listens to Ed - he'll save his ass, and ours along with it. nt

[w8liftinglady]

2. there IS no compromise on some things...health care,education,and infrastructure being three

[w8liftinglady]

4. as well as elder care,economic stimulation and support of military veterans

NO privatization...private corps have proven themselves to be untrustworthy.They had their chance.They blew it.

[nadinbrzezinski]

6. No, there is simply no compromise

read what McConnell said today at at Heritage.

I even posted it earlier in the day...

And this is war, period

[Angry Dragon]

7. Obama has all ready tossed education out the window

[chimpymustgo]

29. And tax cuts for the filthy rich!

[Naturyl]

3. You don't "compromise" with T. Rex.

Try asking him to sit down and have a reasonable discussion about the issues. It will work well for the remaining 3 seconds of your life.

[laughingliberal]

5. K & R nt

[Gin]

9. AMEN!

[nadinbrzezinski]

8. Well back to work now

[DJ13]

10. Obama and the Dems in Congress dont plan on compromising

They plan on a full surrender.

[bobbolink]

11. I'm afraid you are right.

They got theirs.

All the $$ they have garnered along the way leaves them with a very secure future.

[nadinbrzezinski]

13. Careful there

some folks are having problems with this.

[TornadoTN]

27. A staged surrender

How can you surrender when you never fought in the first place?

[Botany]

12. Yup in Ohio Governor Elect Kasich wants to take public education "private."

Pure genius kill off the idea that made this country great.

[nadinbrzezinski]

15. Of course, they have the voters

exactly where they want them... and ignorant box of rocks...

Education might just make them more aware... like slugs...

No insult meant, but serious... this is exactly what they want...

Hell before they are done, we will be back at indentured slavery.

[HughMoran]

14. There's no need to compromise

We can simply do nothing for the next 2 years - no biggie. They might cave on taxes, but that's about it.

[nadinbrzezinski]

17. I am not counting on that

and optics matter... you know what they did with this...



What do you think they will do with a POTUS that looks weak?

A few cartoon images come to mind.

I really should get to work... this is too harsh for here.

It is even seen as divisive, never mind that this is exactly the ugly truth... after that... it is how do we fight back?

And yes there are differences between the two parties... but to the box of rocks the one looking like strong and shit is better... again optics.

[Canuckistanian]

16. He's on fire tonight

Don't often hear him going off on Obama like that.

[nadinbrzezinski]

18. I did earlier but some folks didn't like the unvarnished truth.

[kjackson227]

19. Yep, Big Eddie sounded a little frustrated himself, today...

I think the post election has gotten to him same as all of us. Also add disappointment in the American voters. It's still pretty hard to believe they voted the Rethugs back in.

[nadinbrzezinski]

23. It is not hard to believe

the economy sucks... leave all intellectual analysis out of it.

It is the wallet. Are you better now than you were four years ago? It is THAT FUCKING SIMPLE!

And the republicans know how to use fear.

Why we need to do the same. Enough of this nice...

Hey grandma, Republicans WILL take your social security.

Grandpa... Republicans will take your Medicare.

That works.

All other intellectual efforts, eyes glass over and that's it.

[TornadoTN]

21. Have the "Screw Big Ed, he's a loud mouth jock!" crowd shown up yet?

Remember, it's all of us who are ungrateful and refuse to kiss the rings that's the problem.

[nadinbrzezinski]

26. I expect them

they cannot deal with THIS reality.

[AndrewP]

28. LOL. I know, right?

I thought Ed was great today.

[ejpoeta]

22. i liken it to a battered spouse. they think if they are extra nice

then their spouse won't hurt them. but the spouse still does and then blames them for it. and then the battered spouse apologizes. trying to be nice won't prevent that beating. the only thing that is going to work is to stand up and kick that abuser in the balls and give them a black eye and then walk away.

[nadinbrzezinski]

24. Helsinki syndrome

25. If you don't stand up for something,

you'll fall for anything!
