ace makes some good points on a fundamental level. What's disagreeable is his opinions of the situation.
It being Obama's failure should Republicans turn down a sensible plan is a difficult thing to swallow. Especially considering ace calls it a situation of Obama's own device and that Obama is single-handedly responsible for it, as an individual. A tough thing to swallow.
Of course, I doubt ace would admit Obama's plan is anywhere close to sensible. Tax increases are absolutely out of the question. It's either low taxes or no deal. The lone wolf Obama is dropping the ball.
So what is all this "Gang of Six" noise I'm hearing about?
