"Fiscal Cliff" that doesn't kill Obama, makes him stronger. - If the American Nation goes over the Fiscal Cliff and the economic consequences are not very grave ( as I expect ), then Obama will emerge stronger and more powerful as President, Politician and Leader

.
There is a very good possibility that there is no deal on the "Fiscal Cliff", a Republican hoax and scam. And that taxes will go up for everybody on January 1, 2013. It is likely that the Stock Market would suffer a decline for a few days or weeks and then picks up again as shrewd investors take advantage to buy good stocks at bargain prices.

Only thing that President Obama has to do is NOTHING in year 2012 and propose some legislation in January 2013 to give relief to the 98% of taxpayers that earn less than $250,000 a year, by extending the Bush Tax Cuts, only for that 98% of less rich Americans. But that decision will also favor lightly the Richest 2%.

The Fiscal Cliff does not mean a recession, perhaps a tiny slope of a few days or weeks. The American Economy is very strong now and posed for a Big Prosperity of several years under President Obama.

Ignorance of that Economic Fact is what scares people. You don't die because a mosquito bites you ( generally ! ). But the Richest people and their puppet Congress Republicans take advantage of ignorance and are constantly fearmongering and creating big scares to manipulate ignorants and fools.

At the end of all these economic adventures Republicans are going to be left with noses longer than Pinocchio's.

HuffPost : Krauthammer told Hannity that Obama had been able to create a "civil war" over taxes within the GOP. --- "He's been using this -- and I must say with great skill, and ruthless skill, and success -- to fracture and basically shatter the Republican opposition," he said

.

Charles Krauthammer said to Sean Hannity of Fox News :

"He's been using this -- and I must say with great skill, and ruthless skill, and success -- to fracture and basically shatter the Republican opposition," he said. "The only redoubt of the opposition is the House. And his objective from the very beginning was to break the will of the Republicans in the House, and to create an internal civil war, and he's done that. How did he do it? By always insisting from day one after the election that Republicans had to raise rates ... he did that because he knew it would create a crisis among Republicans, and it did."


My Comment :

If what Krauthammer says is true, then Obama is a Political Genius and Congress Republicans are idiots

Charles Krauthammer is being Krauthammer always throwing Conservative Bombs ......  How stupid can be a party in Civil War ??? ..... because of the intelligence, shrewdness and skill of a President of the other Party ??

If a Democrat or Liberal says something negative about the GOP then that is prejudice, bigotry, fanaticism and hatred. But Krauthammer is one of the most respected "pundits", sages and wise men that the Republican Party has now.

Can you understand the gravity of what Krauthammer says ?? ..... It means that the GOP is led by idiots and that they are constantly deceived by a master of politics !!

How can the "Obama Coalition" continue giving Democrat Presidents to the USA ?? - Reading Ruy Teixeira and John Halpin we unravel the secret for future triumphs of the Democratic Party and Obama's progressive successors

.

These two authors say :

"White working-class support for Democrats has been higher in key battleground states such as Ohio, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin than in other states, while white college-educated support for Democrats has been strong in emerging battlegrounds such as Colorado and Virginia."

My Comment :

Then Democrats should work to preserve these White Demographies in Ohio, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin ( and other Midwest States where they triumphed in 2012 ) and they should strive to conserve the White College-Educated Youngsters and their good showing in year 2012 among White Single Women.

I see absolutely no reason why Minorities would desert the Democratic Party and flock to the Republican Party ..... The Racism, Hatred and Bigotry in the GOP is so intense that it can not be cured in a few presidential election cycles.

Racism is a powerful drug, when you abandon it you are left with a great emptiness and nothingness. And there are no rehab clinics for Racism. And as you see now in the discussions of the "Fiscal Cliff" the Republican party will continue being the party of Plutocracy and the Puppets of the Richest and Wealthiest Americans, let's say the Party that only works for the economic interests of the top 2% in income and fortune.

Mitt Romney’s religion, dependent on a despicable con man and thief Joseph Smith is less than two hundred years old. -- Why we would ever think that reports two millennia old are any more reliable ?? - Atheistic AutoBiography of "Virgin" Mary

.

From "The New Republic" : Virgin Mary despises all those crazies that want to make her son a God.

Excerpts :

And she does not hide her disdain for his followers: “He gathered around him, I said, a group of misfits, who were only children like himself, or men without fathers, or men who could not look a woman in the eye.” Her boy Jesus “could have done anything … he was grateful, good-mannered, intelligent.” But he chose to shine his light on a ragtag bunch of losers, and they pushed him toward a glory he did not want, until at last, consumed by their admiration, he did.

And so, Mary recalls, her son becomes so arrogant that he disrespects his mother. She cannot get close to him, always has to deal with his followers instead. Even his diction began to separate him from her: “he had begun to talk to others, high-flown talk and riddles, using strange proud terms to describe himself and his task in the world.” Mary does not buy the story of her son’s turning water into wine. As she remembers it, there was wine in some of the containers, water in others, and “in all the shouting and confusion no one knew what happened.” Mary is just as skeptical that her son raised Lazarus from the dead.

*******************

As the testament leaves off, the disciples have just tried to persuade Mary that she held her son’s crucified body. But the shameful truth is that she fled his crucifixion to escape the Romans. She tells them as much, but she knows that her truth is useless to them, and so they will proceed with their lies. Her son is dead, and in a sense dead to her before he died. She has little use for the religion they will make of his memory. And she has little use for her religion, either. “I do not go to the Synagogue now,” Mary writes.

TNR : "Republicans’ vote against Plan B pretty much guaranteed they’d be cast as the bad guys, and may even have rescued Obama from his own premature concession. I know that sounds simplistic. But honest to God, sometimes life really can be this simple."

.

Timothy Noah in "The New Republic" explains why President Obama has all the winning cards against Republicans and he should not make concessions. The GOP is a victim of its own zealotry, fanaticism, intransigence, stubbornness, bigotry, dogmatism, rigidity, doctrinariasm, lack of flexibility and compromise, and even lack of intelligence !.

Republicans are for very unpleasant surprises as the American Nation goes over the Fiscal Cliff .... In my opinion without grave consequences, because the "Fiscal Cliff" is a Big Republican Hoax and Scam, invented by the Super Rich that are benefited by paying extremely low taxes and these same very wealthy people manage the Congress Republicans as puppets.

This time the Puppeteers are not going to win !

Morgan Housel ( The Motley Fool ) tells us that America is in the threshold of a Big Prosperity... Many Economic indicators point to the start of a Long Beautiful Bull Market, with American Productivity and Competitiveness shining again

.

I have been a follower and fan of Morgan Housel for years, and I give him more credit than to the usual Casandras ( Prophets of Doom ) that we see everyday. His projections and opinions have not failed.

Republicans have done a big unsuccessful attempt to persuade us of impending economic doom for America, nothing farther from the Truth.

Jonathan Chait : Boehner's Plan B was rejected in the U. S. House of Representatives - "Without Boehner’s fallback strategy, the bulk of his membership if left totally exposed to Obama’s withering January attack. "If they were hoping to fight it out with the president after the New Year, their hopes of victory look even fainter now."

.

Excerpt from New York Magazine :


The Plan B meltdown exposes Boehner’s weakness among the craziest of his crazies, and may leave him less willing to incur their wrath. But incur it he will, either by making a last-minute deal with Obama, or next year, when a huge tax hike (and defense cuts) spring into effect. The existence of a blowback on the right has always been a given. The practical effect of the failure of Plan B is to make it harder for Boehner to execute the strategy the crazies want him to follow. (That is how crazy they are -- so crazy they can't even rationally connect their power to their own desired ends.)

VIDEO, Rachel Maddow : "Dysfunctional GOP Congress Does It Again - Nothing" - House Republicans are lazy moochers and parasites, they reject the bills of the Republican House Speaker John Boehner - It seems that he has no authority

.
They earn a lot of money but do no work. Zero Legislation and Zero Achievements.  They are the topmost in "Welfare Queens" and "entitlements".

The thing that the U. S. House of Representatives does best : Nothing ! - These Republican bums have being there for two years doing nothing and approving zero important legislation.

The bills that the House Speaker, Republican John Boehner try to pass are sunk by his own party. There is a mood of stubbornness, intransigence, and no compromise on anything, among Republicans.

They are blind to the fact that they were defeated in the November Elections.
