the only thing they will agree on is to have a Christmas break. Both sides don't care how much of our money they spend, it's not even our money anymore, more like our great grand kids money. We borrow money just to give it to Egypt, Pakistan etc. The only way Hillary managed a peace treaty between Israel and Palestine is to buy them off. They are probably getting a billion a day for not bombing Israel.

The problem is......the spending has to STOP, and there is no indication that Obama has ANY intention of reducing the spending at all.

Raising revenues, without reducing spending, is simply accomplishing NOTHING!

Any tax increases will be meaningless until they curtail the spending. Otherwise we gain nothing.

In any negotiation, you try to get the other person to make the first offer. So when Mitch McConnell wants the President put forth an offer he wins if the President concedes. Sit down at the table and do it equally!!!
