Somehow I have a feeling that the repubs want the fiscal cliff to happen. :(

why were they elected? they have no use for America, nothing but a bunch of leeches sucking the life out of America just to achieve one goal(ruin the president), therefore messing up many dreams that America has promised to us. We elected Pres. Obama with our voice, now the republicans are trying to knock us upside the head and ignore us. They are waiting for the fiscal cliff to happen.

Why can't we just remove the stubborn republicans and tea party idiots and put in politicians who will at least try to negotiate? Now is not the time to ruin the pres. they tried that the last four years accomplishing nothing holding up processes that could have been completed in a few months, instead the reps caused a government shutdown because they wanted to act like children and disobey and rebel against the president, it sickens me that we have such immature brats in charge of internal affairs, when they need to be home crying like a little baby because they didn't get their expensive toy at the grocery store.

And about this Libya situation, again, republicans are acting like little babies crying over spilled milk, john mccain, you sicken me, why are you in office? every time there is a rebellion in a foreign country that we don't have anything to do with, you always say "lets arm the rebels" you john mccain are an attention seeker that just needs to be left alone. Its as if republicans only listen to bill oreilly and rush limbaugh(which is why romney said what he said,"I'm just not good at giving out gifts&quot , who are not politicians but a pair of sore losers, who only care about themselves and their show.

Repubs want catastrophe, so give 'em a manageable one.

The cliff hits defense contractors and the rich, hard.

'throw me in that briar patch!' I'm officially with the Thelma & Louise crowd anymore: go over that cliff, then work to restore the tax cuts to the middle class. If repugs caterwaul and attempt to restore tax cuts for the 1%, there will be a backlash they cannot begin to fathom.
