Our story thus far.....

Taichiliberal

Shaken, not stirred!
And another created crisis has been averted, so the mighty American economy can roll on!

So the GOP has declared victory, and Dems wail that the store has been given away, the REALITY is that in a few months all this crap will be coming on the floor of the House and Senate AGAIN.....only THIS time the Party of NO loses it's filibuster edge, as a "super congress" of six will have the ultimate policy making decisions...and Obama will have the final say on everything. (wow....from big bureacracy to 7 people deciding the fate of our gov't and country....with the approval of the Dems(libs and progs) and the GOP (neocons/teabaggers).

Meanwhile, back at the ranch...thousands of airline workers who are responsible for inspections, repairs and upgrades to the airlines and airports have been put on FURLOUGH thanks to the inability/unwillingness of the GOP to properly finance them (shades of Reagan's Union busting!) So folks, just hope nothing happens before your neocon/teabagger representatives get their acts together and give those people THEIR MONEY!

More to come, I'm sure.

Um... I guess you didn't read my thread that announced they are no longer on furlough...

And the media isn't reporting why the Dems in the Senate wouldn't vote on it. This comes down to the Card Check for Unions. Literally. They refused to vote on what the house passed because they wanted card check to unionize rather than to go back to a private vote.
 
In short, it wasn't the republicans who held them hostage... They voted for something that would have made it so they wouldn't have ever been furloughed...
 
Is it me?

Or has anyone noticed how old Obama is looking?

Some photos of him lately look really bad.

it happens to most, if not all presidents. bush, clinton...especially in today's age of high resolution tv and and pictures...the job of president is like no other job on earth. i can't even imagine the stressors that come with the office. as much as i dislike many obama policies and decisions, i admire him for being the president.
