Rising Hegemon
President Barack Obama's top adviser suggested to The Huffington Post late Wednesday that the administration is ready to accept an across-the-board continuation of steep Bush-era tax cuts, including those for the wealthiest taxpayers.
And guess who else they are waiting on?
Also dealing "with the world as we find it," Axelrod declined repeatedly to comment on any of the controversial debt-reduction measures suggested by the chairs of the president's own commission -- even those, such as raising the Social Security retirement age, that go against Obama campaign pledges and strike at the heart of Democratic constituencies.
He said that the White House would wait until the commission made its final recommendations on Dec. 1 before adding, "the president's commitments haven't changed."
The whole point of a commitment, is to be, y'know, committed about it.
"The World as we find it". Inspiring.
Not even decent cat food, just dry crap from an Aldi.

Here’s the deal, folks. Aldi doesn’t sell dry cat food, but Shep “Complete Nutrition” Dry “Dog Food”
is going for $0.40/lb. Just add water, bile and misery, and you can sustain life, if you want it on those terms. Stock up now.
Not even, “You know, folks, Reaganomics is killing this country — we’ll have to face that eventually”. Just, “We have to deal with the world as we find it.” Obama’s the best thing to happen to Republicans since Reagan.
Personally, I'm honing my urban squirrel hunting skills so's to augment the dry dog food and saw dust. (It's never too late to start building an old-age-survival saw dust reserve.)
To the tumbrels, ladies and gentlemen of the rabble, to the tumbrels. Lady Guillotine is pining for her due.
If dims take the social security I've paid into all my life (and which I'll need for survival in 8 years) and give it to billionaires in tax cuts, fuck them.
There is no one left to vote for.
We need a third party.
yes we can...deal with the world as we find it -
isn't as punchy.
Shep “Complete Nutrition” Dry “Dog Food” ... is people!!!
not familiar with aldi.
what will the dog + cats eat?
They'll eat each other, and when hyperinflation come barreling in, we'll eat them.
Going SE Asia.
are pets soylent red?
In the realm of silver linings, if the administration does go down this road, expect some of the more liberally Senators (led by Sanders) to raise hell. They will NOT let this go through. And finally, enough people may wake up and see where all this is going to make a real difference.
Yeah, right.
Obama is finished if he does this.
